History
The so-called House of the Vettii (VI, 15, 1) is a luxurious townhouse (domus) located in Pompeii. The house's owners in its final phase were the freedmen brothers Aulus Vettius Conviva, an Augustalis, and Aulus Vettius Restitutus. Among other features the house is important for its Fourth Style wall paintings.
