Pompeii, a Roman city that disappeared overnight

Spirituality,Pompeii,Italy,Rome,

You may have heard many stories from the ancients, but what happened in Pompeii is undoubtedly one of the most important events in the ancient world. Because a city disappeared overnight and no one knew about its existence for 1500 years

This video is a documentary about our trip to the ancient city of Pompeii in Italy.

Pompeii is an ancient Roman city in Campania, Italy, located 14 miles (23 km) southeast of Naples, on the southeastern side of Mount Vesuvius. The city was one of the great trading ports and strategy of ancient Rome and had a high reputation for freedom in lust.


At noon on August 24, 79 AD, a massive eruption from Mount Vesuvius rained volcanic lava over Pompeii, which accompanied by clouds of hot gas the next day. The next day, waves of volcanic melt material and hot gas reached the city, and suffocated those who survived under the rubble. And it did not take long for the city to be buried under ashes and rocks to a depth of 3 meters. And it cause the roofs of many building to collapse.

The city was buried under the ashes for centuries and it was forgotten, until in 1599 the ruins of the city were accidentally discovered by an architect named Domenico Fontana. The discovery of this city made the fans of the ancient world happy and shocked others.

Because some residents who were trapped by the collapse of the roofs and suffocated by the volcanic gas, their flesh decomposed over time and formed a complete mold of stone that contained bone minerals, which prevented it from rotting. Archaeologists, led by renowned Italian architect Giuseppe Fiorelli, then injected plaster into the corpses to keep them in the same shape as they were when they died.


Today, most of the ruins of this ancient city have come out of the ground and it is possible for the public to visit this city and its unfortunate people up close.
