Why is Pompeii such important archaeological site?
Pompeii is a slice in time. The city is exactly the way it was on the day in 79 AD when it was buried. Historians can study how the people lived and the quality of the life on that day. The people of Pompeii lived pretty well and the houses and stores show us this. The art painted on the walls of the houses is bright and clear, the villas that the rich lived in are still nice, and the stores that lined the streets can be seen. The streets are still laid out as they were. I visited Pompeii in 05 and only saw a small bit of the 65 acres that make up the city, but when you go there you walk back into time.
