context
Allison 2006 : Insula of the Menander. House number : I 10,7. Room number : 10. Room Type : Portico. Location : South side, eastern intercolumniation, near cistern mouth.
Damien Delvigne : La maison a été baptisée Casa del Fabbro. Les objets retrouvés dans cette maison semblent renvoyer au travail de l’os et du bois. Monteix 2011 (p. 17–23) identifie de manière convaincante cette maison comme celle d’un fabricant de meubles.
Monteix 2011 : Les rares esquilles provenant de la pièce 10, j’y restituerai les opérations de débitage.
