Villa Del Pastore means “Villa of the Shepherd” in Italian.

This villa gets its name from a small statue of a shepherd that was discovered at this site (images of this statue can be seen at the stabiae.org website).

This villa measures even larger than Villa San Marco, coming in at 19,000 square meters.

This Villa was rediscovered in 1967.

This villa includes many rooms and both large baths and luxurious gardens.  It lacks, however, any domestic rooms, suggesting that it may not have been a residence.

One hypothesis is that this is instead a valetudinarium (health spa) that would have allowed people to take advantage of the famous spring waters of Stabiae.

This Villa has not yet been fully excavated
