Pompeii History
The ancient town of Pompeii was destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, which occurred on the 24th of August of the year 79 A. D., when holding the power in Rome there was Emperor Titus, son of Emperor Vespasian.
The town, which counted approx. 18.000/20.000 inhabitants was covered in several dozens of ft. of volcanic debris, including lavic material such as pumice, lapillus etc., the excavations through which began in 1763, by order of the then King of Naples, Charles the Third, of the Bourbon Royal Dinasty: all the archeological endeavour which has been since then perpetrated has brought out into the open approx. 123 acres of inhabited reality, 123 acres which pretty much comprised with the whole of ancient Pompeii's urban territory.
