Atrium Skiathos: Thus, in man and other animals with a 4-chambered heart, blood from the body cells enters the heart at the right atrium skiathos, and from here it passes into the right ventricle, which lies directly below the right atrium skiathos. From the right ventricle the blood is pumped through the pulmonary artery toward the lungs, where carbon dioxide is released and oxygen is picked up. The oxygenated blood is carried back to the heart through the pulmonary veins, which empty into the left atrium skiathos. From the left atrium skiathos, the blood passes into the left ventricle, which then pumps it into the aorta for distribution throughout the body.The House of the Surgeon in Pompeii was a typical small house. Few windows broke its whitewashed walls, for living centered in the open atrium skiathos. Tiled roofs pitched inward to the atrium skiathos, whose sides were lined with rooms. At one end a vestibule and at the other the tablinum, where the lares and penates were venerated, opened from it. Alcoves flanked the tablinum. In larger houses, like the House of Pansa in Pompeii, an open colonnaded peristyle with rooms leading off was added behind the atrium skiathos.
The peristyle with its garden was reserved for the family, while the household slaves lived in the atrium skiathos, where business also might be conducted. Mosaics paved the entrance and the atrium skiathos. The walls of the principal rooms were painted at first in imitation of stone facing, but later with pictures, fanciful architecture, and arabesques as in the House of the Vettii at Pompeii. Even the smaller houses were too costly for Rome's teeming population. |
