Pompeii as a source. The discovery of Pompeii is of huge importance for our modern-day understanding of the ancient Roman-Italic world-partly because the more public and monumental ruins left behind by Imperial Rome have often been misleading. The excavations at Pompeii and Herculaneum ... offer an intact vision of daily life in a Roman society in all its aspects. Their ruination and destruction left crucial questions unanswered, and made it impossible in many ways to gather a satisfactory understanding of the Roman world from them.
Pompeii [1] is in Campania, Italy, not far from Naples. Its major attraction is the ruined ancient Roman city of the same name, which was engulfed by Mt. Vesuvius in AD 79. This is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.n August 24, 79 AD, Vesuvius erupted, burying the nearby town of Pompeii in ash and pumice, killing around 3,000 people, the rest of the population of 20,000 people having already fled, and preserving the city in its state from that fateful day.
