Le réseau hydraulique à Pompéi (Italie) de l’époque des Samnites à Auguste (fin ive-fin ier s. av. J.-C.) by Federico Giletti

“…While the latter type appears equally in both private and public contexts, the burrow cistern by contrast differs in that it is excavated entirely into the lava stratum and has been demonstrated, as far as we currently know, only on the main outcrops of the lava plateau, such as on the rocky crest of the southern drop in height below insula 2 of Regio VIII.While the type of cistern with a burrow or bainhole seems to have been inspired by models already widespread in Punic-Carthaginian sites in Africa and on the islands and in the Magna-Greek area, cases of cisterns with a burrow collected to several arms primarily bear strong similarities to Etruscan-Latian examples, as does the technique of drainage tunnels entirely excavated in the geological bank and the custom of digging deep artesian wells. …”
