INTRODUCTION
   Pompeii was a city of
    the Ancient Rome,
    that was near
    Herculaneum, in the
    region of Campania,
    near the new city of
    Naples.
MOUNT VESUVIUS
   Mount Vesuvius is a volcano in the Gulf of
    Naples, Italy, about 9 kilometres east
    of Naples and a short distance from the coast. It
    is one of several volcanoes which form
    the Campanian volcanic arc. Vesuvius consists of
    a large cone caused by the collapse of an earlier
    and originally much higher structure.
VESUVIUS’ ERUPTIONS
   Mount Vesuvius has erupted many times. The
    famous eruption in 79 AD was preceded by
    numerous others in prehistory, including at least
    three significantly larger ones, the best known
    being the Avellino eruption around 1800 BC
    which engulfed several Bronze Age settlements.  
    The volcano erupted again in 1631, six times in
    the 18th century, eight times in the 19th century,
    and in 1906, 1929, and 1944. There has been no
    eruption since 1944.
MOST IMPORTANT ERUPTION
                 In the year of 79 AD, Mount
                  Vesuvius erupted in one of
                  the most catastrophic and
                  famous eruptions of all time.
                 Mount Vesuvius caused a
                  deadly cloud of stones and
                  ash to a height of
                  4km, throwing lava and
                  rocks at the speed of
                  1.5 million tons per second. 
                 The towns of Pompeii
                  and Herculaneum were
                  destroyed. An estimated
                  16,000 people died from the
                  eruption.
