Quote:Nappo, Salvatore, 1998 "Pompeii", Weidenfeld & Nicolson, London

Page 37 describing the Palaestra (public space for training etc) - photograph of artefact described as a bronze stirrup.
If this is correct we would have evidence, from a sealed, datable deposit, at least for some use of stirrups.
