Opis

Originally published in 1886, this work contains information detailing the important discoveries made during the excavation of the lost city of Pompeii. It details much of the life and construction of the city from its drainage and streets to its frescoes. This is a fascinating work for anyone interested in this wonderful but doomed ancient city. Pompeii was an ancient Roman town-city near the modern Italian city of Naples. It is famed for being one of the ill-feted settlements destroyed and buried by the massive eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Along with Herculaneum, Pompeii is of particular interest and historical importance due to its preservation under the several metres of volcanic ash and pumice, protecting it from air and moisture. This created a snapshot of a moment in an ancient civilisation that would otherwise have been eroded by time.
