Join Simona Cochi digital journalist, storyteller, and international ambassador, as she takes you on an exclusive digital review of one of Pompeii's most recent archaeological discoveries: the thermal and convivial complex in Regio IX, Insula 10. This remarkable find offers unprecedented insights into the lifestyle and social practices of Pompeii's elite before the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.

This domus, featuring a grand banquet hall known as the "Black Hall" (salone nero) and a large private bathhouse, reveals how Roman elites used these spaces to assert their status, cultivate relationships, and influence public opinion. Through luxurious banquets, ritualistic bathing sequences, and elaborate entertainment, the host orchestrated performances that reinforced social hierarchies and patronage networks.

Key highlights include:
The sequence of bathing and dining, showcasing advanced engineering such as hypocaust heating systems and lead boiler technology.
The role of banquets as political and social instruments, with seating arrangements reflecting strict hierarchical structures.
Greek-inspired decorations and athletic themes, symbolizing the Hellenistic influence on Roman elite culture.
Religious rituals integrated into feasts, including offerings to household gods and dedications to deities like Bacchus.

Simona Cochi brings this fascinating discovery to life, offering a deeper understanding of the customs, hierarchies, and aspirations that defined Pompeian society on the eve of its tragic destruction. Whether you're a history enthusiast or simply curious about ancient civilizations, this video is a must-watch!
