Mosaic with inscription SALVE LUCRU
One of the Roman houses from the 1st century BCE in Pompeii had a very interesting inscription on the floor in the entrance – SALVE LUCRU, i.e. “Welcome, money”. The mosaic decorated the house of a certain Publius Vedius Siricus, who was a significant city politician and trader. Every day he was visited at home by supporters who read this inscription.
