Herculaneum and pompeii

1500 years

Pompeii is more famous than Herculaneum because of the scale of its destruction and preservation, as well as its larger size and population. The city of Pompeii was buried under a thick layer of volcanic ash, whereas Herculaneum was covered by mud and lava, leading to differing levels of preservation. Additionally, the stories and artifacts uncovered in Pompeii have captured the public's imagination more than those found in Herculaneum.
