My favorite is the simple, classic "SECVNVNDVS HIC CACAVIT" aka "Secundus deficated here" written on a walls in public places.
i want to share with you some of my favourite graffiti from Pompeii
“Weep, you girls. My penis has given you up. Now it penetrates men’s behinds. Goodbye, wondrous femininity!“
“Amplicatus, I know that Icarus is buggering you. Salvius wrote this.“
“We two dear men, friends forever, were here. If you want to know our names, they are Gaius and Aulus.“
“Floronius, privileged soldier of the 7th legion, was here. The women did not know of his presence. Only six women came to know, too few for such a stallion.“
“On April 19th, I made bread.“
“ I have buggered men.“
“If anyone does not believe in Venus, they should gaze at my girlfriend.“
“It took 640 paces to walk back and forth between here and there ten times.“
“Chie, I hope your hemorrhoids rub together so much that they hurt worse than when they every have before!“
“Epaphra is not good at ball games.”
“Two friends were here. While they were, they had bad service in every way from a guy named Epaphroditus. They threw him out and spent 105 and half sestertii most agreeably on whores.“
“Secundus likes to screw boys.“

Graffiti Depicting Gladiators Found in Pompeii
Archaeologists have uncovered ancient graffiti depicting gladiators during excavations of the house of the Casa del Cenacolo Colonnato enclosure in Pompeii.
Pompeii was a Roman city, located in the modern commune of Pompeii near Naples, Italy.
Pompeii, along with the Roman town of Herculaneum, were buried under 4 to 6 metres of volcanic ash and pumice during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79.
Recent excavations at the Casa del Cenacolo Colonnato enclosure on the Via dell’Abbondanza have found ancient graffiti drawings made by children using charcoal. The graffiti was likely made just prior to the volcanic eruption and depicts several scenes of Roman gladiators.
Gabriel Zuchtriegel, Director of the Pompeii Archaeological Park, explained that children living in the complex must have come into contact with this extreme form of spectacularised violence at the amphitheatre.
“The drawings show us the impact of this violence on the imagination of a young boy or girl, subject to the same developmental stages that are still found today,” said Zuchtriegel
According to the archaeologists, drawings in a corridor adjacent to a service courtyard depict a scene of two gladiators confronting each other, along with a hunting game (venatio) featuring two bestiarii armed with spears.
In an area of the complex used for the storage of amphorae, another series of drawings were uncovered portraying two figures playing with a ball, a wild boar, and a boxing scene. Another boxing scene in the complex immortalizes the act of “knock-out”, but this depiction has been partly covered by whitewash and was drawn using a red mineral pigment.

this article has some really excellent thoughts re: the historical inaccuracies in gladiator ii and the view of ancient rome that they promote
#pretty much sums up my thoughts!#i don't care about stuff like sharks in the colosseum or graffiti in english#i DO care about the portrayal of the severans creating a false image of the roman empire being white and european#pie says stuff#history#ancient rome#gladiator ii#gladiator 2#gladiator

Dutch Tourist Caught Signing His Name on Ancient Pompeii Wall
A Dutch tourist has been arrested after allegedly vandalizing an ancient Roman building, near Pompeii in Italy.
The unnamed 27-year-old was detained on Monday after staff found graffiti on the wall of an ancient Roman building in black permanent marker. The tourist now faces charges of damage and defacement of artistic works, police said in a statement.
The incident occurred on Sunday (June 2) at the UNESCO World Heritage Site, which was also Italy's Festa della Repubblica national holiday - a day when state-run museums and archaeological sites open for free to the public, the Independent reported.
Italian culture minister Gennaro Sanguiliano said: "Once again our cultural heritage is the victim of incivility and idiocy… Yesterday it was the turn of a Roman domus in the Archaeological Park of Herculaneum, defaced by a tourist with a permanent marker." According to police, the graffiti was identified as the arrested man's tag.
