Search
Use the form below to search for documents in this Web site containing specific words or combinations of words. The text search engine will display a list of 10 matching documents, with further pages each of 10 documents at the bottom of the results. Each list item is a link to a matching document; if the document has a title it will be shown, otherwise only the document's file name is displayed.
File names take the format 90101.htm where this is the filename for IX.1.1. The first number is the Pompeii Regio, the next two are the Insula and the last two are the house number. Where there are several documents for a property then the file name will also contain p1 or p2 etc.
Query Language
Because it is no longer supported the pompeiiinpictures Frontpage 2003 text search engine has now been replaced by one provided by Google. This new search engine works differently from the old one in that it looks literally for exactly what you type in.
- Casca Longus
- finds documents containing 'Casca' and 'Longus'
- Casca or Longus
- same as above
- Casca and Longus
- same as above
- Casca not Longus
- same as above
- Cas*
- finds documents containing 'Cas*' and does not act as a wild card search unfortunately.
Remember if searching for a house number that the first part of the number is in roman numerals I, II, III, IV etc so use IX.1.1 not 9.1.1.
If your search does not provide the answer you expect remember that there are a large number of variations on how properties were named.
Try swapping Casa or House or Domus for example.
Try Latin variations such as Holconi Rufi instead of Holconius Rufus.
Try swapping Italian or English alternatives such as Giuseppe for Joseph, Queen for Regina.
A shorter search with fewer words may work better sometimes.
