Can I take a small backpack inside these two sites to hold our travel size umbrellas, rain ponchos and water bottles? Where would I look to find the answer? Thanks for your help in advance

According to a number of results of a Google search for backpacks in the Colloseum, small backpacks are allowed. You have to go through a security check.
Pompeii website states only large backpacks are not allowed. As you really need to carry water with you they expect people to use some sort of suitable pack. Of course people have varying ideas of what is large, medium and small!
The umbrellas are a great idea for Pompeii as you can use them for shade…the site is sadly lacking in shady areas.

Hello I took my Rick Steve’s small backpack that I have taken everywhere without a problem to both places last Nov. I believe you just have to open it like you do in most places for security
