Roque Joaquín de Alcubierre place of death Naples
Later life
He went on to excavate the towns of Asinio Pollio (Sorrento), Capri, Pozzuoli and Cumae. However, from 1750 onwards, arguments arose between him and his subordinates, until he abandoned his responsibilities as head of the excavations and left his duties to people such as Winckelmann, Karl Jakob Weber and Francisco la Vega. They charged him with mishandling of the ancient artifacts.
Alcubierre died on 14 March 1780 in Naples, Italy.
