Domus of Publius Confuleius Sabbio, Roman residential ruins in Santa Maria Capua Vetere, Italy
The excavated Domus contains two vaulted rooms with circular skylights, featuring intricate floor mosaics and remnants of wall frescoes.
During excavations in 1955, archaeologists discovered this residence belonging to Publius Confuleius Sabbio, a former slave who became a merchant of military cloaks.
Mosaic inscriptions within the residence demonstrate the social advancement of freed slaves in Roman society through commercial success and property ownership.
Located beneath a modern condominium on Corso Aldo Moro, visitors access the ancient structure through a double-ramped staircase leading to two connected chambers.
The first room includes a rectangular basin and circular well, indicating its use as a workshop for producing sagum, heavy wool cloaks for Roman soldiers.
