Overview
Esta obra se centra en el estudio de la delimitación de los espacios públicos dentro de las murallas de Pompeya. Esta ciudad nos brinda la posibilidad de realizar un estudio de esta índole, ya que es considerada una cápsula del tiempo y podemos ver en ella el ejemplo más claro de cómo se organizaba urbanísticamente una urbe romana en el siglo I d.C. Para analizar la delimitación de todos estos espacios se ha llevado a cabo un estudio de los bloques irregulares de piedra (termini) que los delimitan. Estos termini estaban fuertemente protegidos por la legislación, por un derecho consuetudinario y por preceptos religiosos. Por ello, a todo aquel que osara mover o sobrepasar dichos termini con la construcción de edificios se le impondría una sanción por parte de la ciudad e incluso en algunos casos por parte del emperador. This book focuses on the delimitation of public spaces within the city wall of ancient Pompeii. Because the original pattern and architectural structures of this city are so well preserved, it provides valuable insight into the urbanism of a Roman city of the 1st century AD. The delimitation of public spaces in the city has here been examined through a study of the boundary stones known as termini. These stones were strongly controlled by municipal legislation, but they were also protected by customary law and religious precepts. Those who damaged or moved the termini, or built their house or any other structure in such a way as to violate the delimiting line marked by the termini, had to pay a penalty, which was imposed by the municipal council or, in some cases, by the emperor.

'This book opens a new window. . The topic is original, the contribution is worthy, and the arguments are well explained.' Dr Sergio Espana-Chamorro, Escuela Espanola de Historia y Arqueologia en Roma (EEHAR-CSIC) 'A remarkable archaeological investigation. . The different elements that divided the public space from the private in the streets and squares of Pompeii have never before been studied together in a specific way or in so much detail.' Prof. Dr. Jose A. Garriguet Mata, Universidad de Cordoba 'Presents an unprecedented archaeological study in Pompeii. The author has realised a comprehensive analysis of the public spaces in this city, which is a very important subject for understanding ancient Roman urbanism.' Dr Juan Aurelio Perez Macias, Universidad de Huelva 'La delimitacion de los espacios publicos pompeyanos se ha llevado a cabo a traves de un importante analisis previo de esta problematica y de un exhaustivo trabajo de campo en las calles de Pompeya recogiendo y contextualizando todos los termini, semitae et crepidines. . Se trata de un trabajo magnifico y util.' Prof. Dr. Joaquin Ruiz de Arbulo, Universidad Rovira i Virgili
