Daily life events
Animate the scenes presented in the pinakes which refer to daily life of the woman of the gynaecaeum (role and consideration of women in Greek culture) and some scenes of daily life taken from the vases and/or the tombs at Paestum where a Greek symposium is represented as well as a series of episodes from the life of the Lucanians.
With a temple as a background various ceremonies and rites follow one another; merchants who make offers for their land and sea journeys (request for protection to the gods of the brigands, pirates and storms) or newly weds who bring offerings for the good outcome of their marriage, or processions.
