The Tombs of Pompeii: Organization, Space, and Society provides a detailed study of the funerary culture found within Pompeii and its surrounding areas.

By integrating data from five different necropoleis, this work allows for a more accurate analysis of trends and social practices.

The text also provides a broad understanding of Pompeian funerary epigraphy and the business aspects related to these monuments.

It offers a comprehensive look at how space and organization functioned within the funerary landscape, making it a valuable addition to any academic library or collection focused on the Roman world.
