The first response was by Pliny the Elder who was the prefect of the fleet based at Misenum on the bay of Naples. He sent rescue ships, but many of the ships could not reach the people on the shore because of the rough waters. When news of the disaster reached Rome, the emperor Titus sent relief and aid. Also as soon as the news reached Rome the looters began their trip to the ruined town. Now some of these people were slaves sent back by the owners of property to try and recover goods, but many of them were gangs of organized looters. There have been bodies of looters found in Pompeii and even marks on buildings indicating that that building had been gone over.

Pompeii is a place in Italy. mt Vesuvius erupted and nearly destroyed the whole place. Today Pompeii is a major tourist attraction and also an area for archaeological study and investigation. You could say its an open air museum.

It gives us an amazing insight into the lives of everyday Roman people.

79 AD. Volcanic eruption of Vesuvius. The eruption covered 65 acres and 3 cities with a pyro clastic cloud that covered the area in about 7 minutes with clouds of rocks, dust, gasses, and 900 degree heat . No matter where anyone hid or where they went in the area they would not have escaped the eruption. Today the volcano is still active with a million people living in the area.

The upper crust in Pompeii were Romans, but Romans took slaves from all over the known world, so the slaves and servants almost surely included a mix of Greeks, Anatolians, Jews, Egyptians, Berbers, Iberians, Catalonians, Gauls, Germans, and others from around the empire.

The city of Pompeii was forgotten because after the eruption and subsequent burial by the volcanic debris, the place was unlivable. The people who escaped sent their servants back to try and rescue any of their possessions that they could and the looters moved in. Then it was simply ignored. People who lived at the time remembered it but when they died out all memory of Pompeii was forgotten.

I Don't Know .. I Even Read The Story. Sorry anyways , shouldn't you know ! Instead of going on the internet looking up answers. Shame

it looks ruined all the place are chrushed

Mt Vesuvius erupted and Pompeii was living in its shadow. The town was covered in many metres of volcanic debris and hidden from sight for hundreds of years, only to be found once again in the 17th century.

If you mean the plaster casts made of the people who perished in the eruption of the Vesuvius: the dead bodies of the fleeing citizens were immediately and completely covered with a thick layer of ashes, produced by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. This meant that the bodies decomposed very slowly for lack of oxygen, while the ashes around them gradually hardened to an almost rock-like material.

Over time, the bodies finally did decompose and disappear, but the ashes had long before 'set' around their original form and position. The result was a sort of cavity within the hardened ashes in the form of the original body. All it then took was to simply fill all those body-shaped cavities with plaster, let it harden and then remove the ashes around the plaster.

alot

no!, they were all buggered!

In A.D. 79 Mount Vesuvius erupted and took over 2000 lives in the process

The city of Pompeii was buried by ash and pumice from the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. To finalize the misery, a super hot heat surge roasted anything that could have escaped the effects of breathing in the volcanic ash.

Because of the volcano there. Vesuvius. In 79 AD it erupted and covered the whole city of pompeii in hot ash and lava and killed 10, 000 people. Now the city is a ruin and a tourist attraction.

Mainly just the shells and ruins of the once magnificent buildings that once stood there. Due to their unique preservation circumstances what remains of this town, including frescoes, mosaics, silver wear and other objects are in excellent condition for their age. There is nothing like it in the world.

it helped them them because when the volcano erupted they were all at the same position as they were and that really helped
