Food market? Nah, this is clearly used to track the sun. Just like every other one of these around the world. C'mon the official narrative here stinks.

The Macellum was an ancient food market where people bought and sold meat and other food items.

These ruins are of the main fish and meat market of Pompeii. Located in the North East corner of the Forum, this was most likely a prime location and very busy. Today, one can see a central area defined by twelve columns, and a very large, beautiful frescoe covering the West wall that is shaded from the sun.
