Addenda al Corpus dei graffiti della Villa dei Misteri

Chiara Vicario, Gianluca mandatori

Abstract


In November 2022, in the so-called Villa of the Mysteries in Pompeii, were discovered new graffiti inscriptions. These texts are going
to be added to the corpus of greek slaves names, some of them already found and red by Matteo Della Corte and Amedeo Maiuri.
Our study aims to be a starting point to review this group of graffiti, which sometimes were wrong interpreted and aims to develop
a new analysis of the relations between the inscriptions and their discovery contexts.

Keywords: Villa of the Mysteries; graffiti; Latin epigraphy; Roman onomastics; servile names.
