The second courtyard area consisted of open colonnade of pillars (peristylum)surrounding the garden (hortus).

The peristylum and hortus area was elaborately decorated and often families would relax here with guests or on their own.

Surrounding the peristylum were
• the slaves’ quarters

The kitchen (culina) and the bathroom(latrina) were located next to each other due to the need for running water.
