Pompeii: That Happened After The Volcano Erupted | Documentary

Everyone knows how Pompeii ended. Almost no one knows what happened next. In 79 AD, Mount Vesuvius buried Pompeii and Herculaneum under ash and mud within hours. But what became of the survivors, the land and the empire that had to respond? Archaeologist Ilaria D'Ambrosio sets out across the Bay of Naples to uncover the forgotten aftermath of the most famous volcanic eruption in history. How did a brand new emperor react to a catastrophe that wiped entire cities off the map? Who returned to the buried streets of Pompeii, and why? What does a scribbled inscription reveal about the true date of the eruption? And why do millions of people still live at the foot of Mount Vesuvius today, one of the most dangerous volcanoes on Earth? From excavation sites and ancient wine villas to a modern volcano observatory, this documentary follows the story of Pompeii beyond the ash. #Pompeii #Vesuvius #AncientRome ---- Interesting links and sources: ---- This channel offers you full episodes of high quality documentaries.
