no.
i think the ash just buried the people alive to where they died from breathing in the ash. I'm not completely sure what happened to them but they did not turn to stone.
More than half of the Pompeii population suffered, if not from suffocating under the stones and ash, most people who stood on the beach awaiting rescue, died from the poisinous gases spewed from Vesuvius.
Pompeii was covered in 9 feet of volcanc ash when Vesuvius erupted.
Pompeii did not affect people in any particular way. It was just an ordinary Roman town. It was mount Vesuvius which affected people. It erupted in 79, covered the town with ash and killed its inhabitants.
It was buried by Mount Vesuvius because of all the ash and stuff that came out of the volcano when it erupted. Might want to double check on wiki or something.
Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD 79, when the whole town of Pomeii was covered in ash!

When people got covered in ash during the eruption of Vesuvius, they had probably already died of heat and gasses. Then the ash hardened around them. Their bodies eventually decayed and disappeared, leaving body-shaped holes that could be cast with plaster.

Mount Vesuvius. Mount Vesuvius is best known for its eruption in AD 79 that led to the burying and destruction of the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum. That eruption ejected a cloud of stones, ash and fumes to a height of 20.5 miles, spewing molten rock and pulverized pumice at the rate of 1.5 million tons per second, ultimately releasing a hundred thousand times the thermal energy released by the Hiroshima bombing. An estimated 16,000 people died due to hydrothermal pyroclastic flows.
Mount Vesuvius, located in the Gulf of Naples, Italy, is a stratovolcano and one of the several volcanoes forming the Campanian volcanic arc. The best known effects of Mount Vesuvius are the burying of Pompeii and Herculaneum in stones, ash and fumes in 79 AD. It is regarded as one of the world's most dangerous volcanoes.
2000 exactly.there bodys were i casts of ash when people discovered them.the eruption was in 79ad and the volcano that erupted was mount vesuvius
Pompeii dead got covered in ash, because they were killed by an eruption of a volcano and the volcano spread ashes on them after they were burned. The volcano name is Mount Vesuvius, though I'm not sure if that's how you spell it.
The exact number of people who died due to the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD in Italy is not known, but it is believed to be in the range of 1,500 to 2,000. These people were killed by the volcanic ash, gases, and pyroclastic flows.
