- POMPEII
Pompei was a fantastic village
during the romain empire, many
Roman veterans went to live in
the city which soon assumed
Roman characteristics, aspect
and language. in 79 a.C. a huge
cloud of ash, lapilli and other
eruptive volcano and submerged
Pompei and many of its citizens
died either trough suffocation
under the collapsed roofs or
under the ash.
Today, you can do a jump into
the past walking trough the
rouins, looking, for example the
home of the Vetti, house of rich
merchant, or Villa dei Misteri,
the most important construction
of Pompeii.
And don't forget to give a look
to the cameo factory. |
