Gynecology in Pompeii.
By tracing the proveniences of the Greco-Roman surgical instruments in the Naples Museum, it is possible to identify sites in Pompeii where surgeons were active. Some of these sites attract special attention owing to the intricacy and quantity of the tools in their instrumentaria. In a few cases a surgical specialty is apparent. Into this category fall three houses that can be associated with the practice of gynecology.
