Pompeii was a Samnite city for centuries before it passed under Roman rule at the time of Lucius Cornelius Sulla (1st cent. BC). Pompeii was not only a flourishing port but a prosperous resort with many villas.
Pompeii was located to the southeast of Mount Vesuvius. The ancient city lies approximately 8.5 kilometers (about 5.3 miles) away from the volcano. When Vesuvius erupted in AD 79, it buried Pompeii under volcanic ash and pumice, preserving the city for centuries.
The volcano that destroyed Pompeii in 79 AD was Mount Vesuvius, located near Naples, Italy. The eruption buried the city in ash and pumice, preserving it under layers of volcanic material until its rediscovery centuries later.
