Vocabulary
- Cunicoli: narrow passages.
- Pozzi: shafts/boreholes.
- Cisterne: cisterns for water storage.
Anatomy
- Shafts deliver air/light and access for maintenance.
- Bridges span cisterns to reach all surfaces.
Try this: Look for tool marks around pozzi — signs of repeated work.
Visitor Map (Mental Model)
| Element | Placement | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Tunnel | Between rooms | Movement, distribution |
| Shaft | Vertical | Inspection, airflow |
| Bridge | Inside cistern | Maintenance access |
Bottom Line
Once you learn the vocab, the underground becomes legible.
