Pompeii

The ruins of Pompey are an open air museum. We get the opportunity to see the actual Roman buildings and houses and their decorations. We also can see everyday items such as cooking utensils, gardening tools, and other household items. We get an idea of the actual layout of a Roman town and the houses of the wealthy and the not so wealthy and their public buildings. Although many of the artifacts have been removed to the museum at Naples, Pompey itself still holds a wealth of interest.

Zero people live in Pompeii today, or so I've heard. But just to be sure look on Google.

glad to help U

When I was there the guide told us that they use to wash down the streets and the stepping stones were used so people could cross the street without getting their feet wet. This also worked in a bad rain storm. It rained the day I was there, but no water collected.

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.

No. There is only one Colosseum and that is in Rome. Pompeii had an amphitheater, but not in it's forum. A forum is a marketplace and civic center. An amphitheater is a place for public entertainment.

Pliny the Younger

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.

other people could have had jobs as fisher men, entertainers, barbers, etc. and they would have earned enough money to have a good life.

Pompeii is considered a dangerous place to live because on August 24, 79 AD Mt. Vesuvius erupted and covered and preserved Pompeii with volcanic ash. Many Romans died, and the plaster casts of how their bodies looked when they died can still be seen today today. Back then, the Romans did not know Mt. Vesuvius was a volcano. Today, Vesuvius is still active, therefore, it could be still considered dangerous.

The 79 AD eruption of Mount Vesuvius destroyed Pompeii and Herculaneum. Most people died from smoke inhalation and suffocation.

You need to specify the location you are referring to. If you are referring to Pompeii, it was buried under 4 to 6 m (13 to 20 ft) of ash and pumice. If you are referring to Herculaneum, which was nearer to Mount Vesuvius, it was buried by about 20 metres (50--60 feet) of ash and pumice

Pompeii was a Roman city whosepopulation has been estimated at 8,000 to 12,000. Pompeii was used by its inhabitants. Rich men form Rome built villas inPompeiiand in other cities around theNaplesarea. Pompeii alsohada trading port.

The name of the modern comune is Pompei. The name of the ancient Roman city within the territory of the comune is Pompeii.

The other city that was partially destroyed, by another side of Mount Vesuvius, was Herculaneum, in the comune of Ercolano.

Yes, the emperor Titus sent aid as soon as the news reached Rome. But the people of Pompeii received help during the eruption as well. Pliny the Elder, who was admiral of the fleet at Misenum not only sent ships, but came in person. In fact he lost his life studying the effects of the volcano and supervising the rescue operations.

The people weren't petrified. They were buried in burning ash from the volcano Mt. Vesuvius. Then, after their bodies were recovered, they were entirely frozen in spot because of suffocation and heat.

Written accounts, specifically Pliny the Younger

The best way to get souvenirs from Pompeii is to go. You won't regret it! And there are little stands a short walk from the front entrance.

The Roman writer Pliny the Younger provides a detailed account of the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD, which buried the city of Pompeii under volcanic ash and debris. Pliny's letters to Tacitus describe the chaos and destruction resulting from the eruption.

Remove the 305 from your truck and set the 350 in. every thing will bolt back up with no problem. good luck

The Romans believed that if people was not given a funeral, they would come back as Lemures.

The lemures (singular lemur) were shades or spirits of the evil or vengeful dead. They were the shades of those who were not given a proper funeral or burial and were not honoured by the living. They were vagrant, restless, unsatiated manes who could be vengeful and torment and terrify the living. They name was probably derived from larvae (singular larva; mask). They were shapeless and lurked in the darkness and its dread. The 9th, 11th and 13th of May were days dedicated to their placation by the households in the ritual called Lemuralia or Lemuria. The head of the household got up at midnight and cast black beans behind him with averted gaze. The Lemures were presumed to feast on them. Black was the appropriate colour for offerings to chthonic deities (see below). If these malevolent shades were dissatisfied with this offering, the head of the household could frighten them into flight by the loud banging of bronze pots.

No, Pompeii is/was an ancient Roman city that was buried by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 AD. It gets its importance because the volcanic ash that buried the city preserved it and gives us insight as to how the average Romans lived.
