Ancient Pompeii was destroyed in AD 79 due to the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius. The eruption released a lethal cloud of stones, ash, and fumes to a height of 33 kilometers, which buried the city under a thick layer of volcanic material. This sudden disaster preserved the city and its artifacts, providing valuable insights into Roman life. The event resulted in the death of thousands of residents, who were unable to escape the rapid onset of the eruption.
