Pompeii remained buried under volcanic ash and pumice for centuries after the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Its location was largely forgotten until the 18th century when construction workers accidentally unearthed the ruins. The initial excavations were often haphazard and focused more on retrieving artifacts than understanding the site, leading to further delays in its comprehensive rediscovery. Additionally, the political and social upheavals in Italy over the centuries contributed to the slow progress of archaeological efforts.
