Context Title: Room 7a     
Context Name (Publication): Room 7a     
Context Description: Row of what were probably magazines belonging to the householder; that they were store-rooms seems to be shown by the fact that they required protection; at the entrance of the passage there was a little guard-chamber where a slave could sit and keep effectual watch on all comers. There were six store-rooms in all and they call for no description; to the first three (Nos. 2a, 3a, and 4a) which inter-communicated, no entrance could be found by us, the wall being in places completely ruined; No. 5a afforded access to Nos. 6a and 7a and was itself entered by a door prudently close to the front door of the house proper.1
