Pompeii, San Paolino Building (Via Plinio 4).

Enzo Lippolis, a tenured full professor of Archaeology at the University La Sapienza in Rome where he was Director of the Department of Sciences of Antiquity, passed away suddenly on 3rd March 2018. It has been a great loss for the archaeological field and the entire Italian cultural world. Four months after his death, the Archaeological Park of Pompeii organised the convention ‘Studium Erga Populum Studium Erga Sapientiam’, in memory of Enzo Lippolis. The two-day convention was not only geared towards the scientific community. It was aimed at discussing the research activities and the latest discoveries made at the Archaeological Park of Pompeii, to which Professor Enzo Lippolis had given his commitment.
On the second day of the convention, the latest discoveries made at the excavation sites were presented. They were the results of research carried out both inside and outside the urban area of the city by the Archaeological Park of Pompeii in cooperation with other national and international research institutes.
