The model, based on real maps of Pompei (nowadays), represents a quotidian day in the august of 79 AD before the Eruption of Mount Vesuvius but it is on activity yet. Pliny the elder in front of Apollo Temple chat with a high minister. The life at Pompei goes normally  a shepard must tend his flock and are going to the agora. The Agora is the centre of life where a woman are selling food, supplies and weapons. In the Amphitheatre two gladiator are training under the train of their “Mecenate” (patron). In front of the Amphitheatre is built the Apollo temple, controlled by a guard, inside there are chair and the statue of Apollo. Beside the agora there are the pleb barracks where the common people live.

Each building is cured in every details, inside and outside as visible in all the picture.
