The latest traces of the passage of Pompeii’s Women in earthly life are trapped instead in the Necropolises, where funeral monuments, inscriptions and accompanying the memory of some of them return. At the end of the course, a leap in today’s nature enables you to explore the profiles of some female figures who have made their contribution to the knowledge of Pompeii, from Carolina Bonaparte, to Wilhelmina Jashemski, from Tatiana Warsher to Olga Elia.
From the large gym, the visit continues in the context of the archaeological park where the exhibition experience becomes a real thematic visit. In fact, there are connections with some important buildings that explain the female condition within the site. To enrich the compelling visit, there are some thematic podcasts that are available in the MyPompeii app, who tell stories about women who really lived in the city. This is how the audience meets Flavia Agatea and Emaachia in the graves in Porta Nocera, the latter finds in the homonymous building in the hole, and here Mamia and Nevoleia Tyche near the graves in Porta Ercolano, to name some guests on this trip.
