Description
The discovered Pompeii is fascinating. While strolling through the streets with colorful signs on the houses, touring the rich villas filled with radiant flowers, or during an impressive visit to the theaters or amphitheater, it is hard for anyone among the more than 11,000 daily visitors to believe that life here ended almost 2,000 years ago. Let us also walk through this city destroyed by the astonishing eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. Let us get acquainted with the everyday life of this bustling and prosperous city. With the lives of its inhabitants from cradle to grave, with the daily craftsmanship and entertainment of the Pompeians, and with their surprising technical advancement and ingenuity. The book was first published twenty-four years ago. This second revised and updated edition is supplemented with more than 200 images and photographs.
