Herculaneum.
The ancient city of Pompeii was destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. This catastrophic event buried the city under layers of volcanic ash and pumice, preserving it for centuries until its rediscovery in the 18th century.
Besides Pompeii and Herculaneum, the towns of Stabiae and Oplontis were also destroyed. Stabiae was a resort city and Oplontis was a hish class suburb of Pompeii. The town of Nuceria may also have suffered some damage.
Rome is the most famous city along the Tiber
The eruption of Pompeii lasted at least a day, piling the cities of Pompeii, Herculaneum with four tons of volcanic ash, pumice, and rock and damaging the nearby cities of Olponti and Stabiae.
Vesuvius erupted and incinerated the entire town, along with everyone in it who could not escape to the sea. Herculaneum was also buried.
Pompeii is a ruined and partially buried Roman town-city near modern Naples in the Italian region of Campania, in the territory of the comune of Pompei. Along with Herculaneum, its sister city, Pompeii was destroyed, and completely buried, during a long catastrophic eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius spanning two days in AD 79.
There was no set size of an ancient Roman city, just as there is no set size of a city in the present day. Rome itself had a population of over a million people and Pompeii had about 20,000 people. There were all sizes of cities between these two numbers, the larger cities generally being seaports or along trade routes.
About 200 buildings were destroyed in the eruption.
