Summary

Through the assembling and reassembling channeled by storage in nested, heterogeneous containers, Chapter 5 pieces together a fragmented knowledge landscape within the atrium houses of Pompeii and Herculaneum. As storage disentangled objects from their previous functions and associations, it created maneuver space for often disempowered groups to subtly leave their mark on the dynamics of the house.
