Viggen Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 American, British and Italian archaeologists have made a major new find at the ancient Roman site of Stabiae, one of the hottest and most happening resorts in ancient times. Stabiae has been neglected over the years because of its more famous neighbour Pompeii and because, frankly, there wasn't much to see there. But now a key new partnership has been set up to dig the whole area of the ancient 'Gomorrah-on-the-Gulf'. Stabiae was in fact much naughtier than supposedly raunchy Pompeii and things went on there that have would have made a Roman patron - never mind matron - blush. via Ansa.it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaius Octavius Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 I guess that I'll have to wait for the book to find out what went on there. Rats! The Roman Kama Sutra!? Now, the Italian babe in the picture; Mamma mia! Che bellezza! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pertinax Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 I guess that I'll have to wait for the book to find out what went on there. Rats! The Roman Kama Sutra!?Now, the Italian babe in the picture; Mamma mia! Che bellezza! This is one site I would enjoy seeing if any restoration is undertaken, Ive always bypassed this area for the reasons cited in the main article, but the tantalising references to the night life and splendidly decadent behaviour here have always interested me-this would surely be the place to eat out. A bit of cabaret would be ok as well :angel: . The towns assets are well displayed in the photograph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaius Octavius Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 Good god, man! You want to go there to eat and see a bit of caberet? Go to Berlin! Although I am sure that Madame Pertinax won't let you take your 'purse' with you, you can at least oogle the Eyetalian babes. Get a hair cut in Naples first. Should ease the pain a bit.

Alas I was refering to the location in its heyday! However I am quite prepared to eat and watch cabaret anywhere.Madame P is of a fiery sensibility and I fear that my purse would be at risk were I to consider inappropriate disbursement of funds.
