 Pompeii is one of the most significant proofs of Roman civilization, with outstanding information on the art, customs, trades and everyday life of the past.

The city has re-emerged from the devastating eruption of Vesuvius. It was the year 79 A.D. The scale of the tragedy was appalling: in Rome, it was one of the most active and splendid Roman centres, life came to a permanent standstill.

The thick layer of volcanic material which submerged it, made up of a large extent of ash and lapilli - non-hard material, that is like that covered Herculaneum and which solidified into extremely hard stone day, not only as far as its buildings are concerned, but also as regards the contents inside the houses and shops, providing an absolutely fascinating picture of "daily" life.
