In 2016 we booked a reasonably late deal cruise on the fairly new ship Royal Princess for a week in the Mediterranean. Mediterranean cruises are port-intensive ones so we had a stop on the very first day at Naples. We opted to take a tour that visited a cameo workshop then took us on a guided walk around Herculaneum. Herculaneum, like Pompeii, was buried under volcanic ash in 79 CE when Vesuvius erupted.

We're in the ruins of an ancient Roman city looking along a narrow street between buildings. The walls either side aren't fully intact with parts barely above head height and they're made of pale, sandy-coloured bricks, mostly arranged as expected but some at angles to form diamond or diagonal patterns. The street consists of narrow strips of flat, raised pavement either side of a recessed surface with a slight curve on it up towards the centre, made of larger blocks of cobblestones. It's about the width of a cart pulled by a single horse. There are some tourists gathered towards the end of the street and one woman is walking this way on the opposite pavement to us. A raised bank at the end of the street is topped by tall thin trees against the patchy sky and more trees at ground level can be seen over the top of the corner of the wall to the left of us. A sign on the wall reads "Insula VI."

There I was sleeping in my bed
Vesuvius my home, just resting my head
Suddenly the mountain it did awake
And apparently sleeping was a big mistake
It appears a big cloud of superheated ash
Into my bedroom and through the window did crash
It was an event I did really quite disdain
However, out of it I got a glass brain

In A.D. 79, a man who died in Mount Vesuvius' eruption near Pompeii had a rare transformation: His brain seemingly turned into glass. Scientists haven’t agreed on the reason, but a team of researchers offers this explanation: The pyroclastic flows must have been immediately preceded by a superheated cloud of ash that first rapidly heated and then rapidly cooled the man's brain as it dissipated. Scary thought. @LiveScience has more:

#Pompeii skeleton discovery shows another natural disaster may have made #Vesuvius eruption even more deadly
Scientists think that skeletons of individuals trapped and killed inside buildings by #earthquakes during the #79CE eruption of Vesuvius could provide a more complete history of destruction

eurekalert.org/news-releases/1 #science #RomanHistory

EurekAlert!Pompeii skeleton discovery shows another natural disaster may have made Vesuvius eruption even more deadlyThe death of inhabitants of Pompeii during the eruption of Vesuvius in 79CE is mostly attributed to volcanic causes, such as falling ashes and hot gas. This, however, may not be the full picture. In a recent study, volcanologists, geologists, and anthropologists teamed up to refocus attention on the effects of earthquake-related events. Examining two newly discovered skeletons, they concluded that their deaths must have been caused by wall collapses triggered by earthquakes, which greatly contributed to the destruction of the ancient city.

"The House Of The Ancient Hunt" … A stolen glimpse into the past … a view into Ancient Pompeii's House Of The Ancient Hunt, also known as The House Of The Wild Boar or Casa della Caccia Antica. To the left is one of the colorful columns, a part of what must have been a magnificent colonnade surrounding an interior court. From what I have read and what I remember, at the time of our visit which was 2005, this house was not yet open to the public (I believe it opened in 2016), so my stolen glimpse was taken from a distance and probably from behind iron bars. My research indicates we're looking into Room 17. If anyone has more information, I'd be delighted to hear it. This is a bit of an abstract impression of these ruins … emphasizing the colors and textures so that the deeper we look into the courtyard, the more realistic the image becomes. The contrast of the color and life of the past … and what befell the inhabitants in 79 AD is symbolized in the light and color in the base, overshadowed by the darkness above. Very loosely based on my own photographic image, I digitally hand painted it in Corel Painter using a variety of great abstract brushes and textures. This image was NOT created using any AI - Artificial Intelligence programs.

The Herculaneum papyrus scrolls were carbonized by the heat from the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in the year 79, and discovered in 1752. Scientists have been attempting to decipher them ever since, with the first words being revealed last year. Now, a team at the University of Pisa has announced that the scrolls reveal Plato's burial place, and that the Greek philosopher did not enjoy the music played while he was on his deathbed. Here's more from CNN.

De Archeoloog

Archeologen hebben bij #opgravingen in #Pompeii, fresco's ontdekt met taferelen die te maken hebben met de #Trojaanse oorlog. Ze vonden ze in de 'zwarte kamer', een soort feestzaal met zwart geverfde muren om de aanslag van olielampen minder te laten opvallen. De #fresco’s zijn uitzonderlijk goed bewaard gebleven, mogelijk omdat ze heel kort na het schilderen vanwege de uitbarsting van de #Vesuvius onder as zijn bedolven.
