During excavation work in the ancient city of Pompeii, Italy, researchers discovered a small yet remarkable structure known as the House of Phaedra, named after the legendary queen of Athens. According to a press release from the Pompeii archaeological park, the house features a well-preserved painting of Phaedra on one wall. Despite its modest size, the House of Phaedra boasts intricate detailing, showcasing scenes of nature and decorative patterns throughout.

Unlike many other homes in Pompeii, this building does not include an atrium—typically a central open-air space for collecting rainwater. Instead, it features a courtyard adorned with painted red walls and includes a covered large tub. Surrounding the tub is a canal designed to channel rainwater to a cistern below.

A lararium shrine within the house exhibits painted motifs of birds, branches, and snakes, equipped with an opening for offerings. Artifacts found on the altar include an elevated element supporting an egg, a fig, a date, and a pine cone. Researchers believe that the last offerings were made prior to the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.

A stunning fresco illustrating Phaedra and Hippolytus was also uncovered, depicting the tragic story of unrequited love and its dire consequences. Gabriel Zuchtriegel, park director, emphasized the importance of public archaeology for preserving historical insights for future generations.
