Mount Vesuvius famously erupted in AD 79, leading to the destruction of the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum. It is estimated that around 2,000 homes in Pompeii were buried under volcanic ash, while Herculaneum saw the destruction of approximately 300 houses. The eruption had a devastating impact on both cities, preserving them in ash and providing valuable archaeological insights into Roman life.
