There is some interesting grafitti scratched on the wall in Pompeii near a rich man’s house.
“HOC EGO CACAVI.” Even the common people seemed to be educated in ancient Rome.

I should mention that I have a book of the art from the “forbidden rooms” of Pompeii. EROS IN POMPEII. I only bought the book because it had Pliny’s description of the volcano erupting and destroying the city. Honest!
