Livestock+&+Animals

__5. Pompeii and Herculaneum: Livestock and Animals__ Pompeii and Herculaneum bred and used horses and cows as livestock and transport, and also raised breeds of oxen, sheep and pigs. || Pictures of fish and other marine animals are depicted in the Mosaic at the House of The Dancing Faun. Fish skeletons have been found in pottery used as Garum jars,also suggesting that fish was left to rot in these jars in order tocreate this fish sauce.
