the Romans belive afterlife
They believed in the god Vulcan, equivalent to the Greeks Hephaistos, there is a temple dedicated to Hephaistos near the agora in Athens, Hephaistos was one of the few consorts of Aethena, a goddess of war, similar to Minerva and Artemis. There is a an old volcanic complex just out side of Rome its inner and outer cones are called the Tusculano-Artemisio cones. Just to the south of this is the ancient city of Velitrae, where Octavian was born, it is also famous for the sculpture of the Athena of Veletri. The point is that volcanism and early mediterranean belief were very strong, the plumes could be seen for great distances, it was such that they became personalities in themselves. Aetna sacred to the Adriatic and Thaera sacred to the Aegean, both sacred to the gods of fire and industry. The volcanic activity of Thaera can be seen for miles around, and may have had a direct influence on the Persian cult of fire, of which Zarathustra was born, a god similar in context to Hephaistos and vulcan.

In what year did Mount Vesuvius' most destructive eruption occur?
The most famous eruption occurred in 79 AD. I think that is the one you're asking about. However, there were earlier eruptions that might be argued as more destruction. I think one in the bronze age wiped out more area.

Why was there no lava in the 79 AD eruption of Mount Vesuvius?
As with some other eruptions, the magma in the 79 AD eruption of Mount Vesuvius was different from how may people think about it. It was extremly viscous and had large amounts of gas trapped in it. So, instead of flowing or fountaining out of the volcano, the magma came out explosively. As it was blasted into the air, most of it formed into fine particles fo glass called volcanic ahs, while some of the larger globs formed pumice.
