Pompeii, Its Life and Art

Note 2 — Chapter II · BEFORE 79

Francis W. (Francis Willey) Kelsey translation

It seems strange that traces of other buildings of the same period have not been discovered; but, on the other hand, it is far from probable that the temple was first erected, and that the city afterward grew up around it, for in that case the temple must have been placed further west, on the highest point of the elevation, overlooking the sea.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
