Originally published in 1871, this work contains information and illustrations detailing the important made discoveries during the excavation of the lost city of Pompeii. It includes chapters on ’The Theatres’, ’Pompeian Art’, ’Private Houses’, and much more. This is a fascinating read for anyone interested in this wonderful but doomed ancient city.Pompeii was an ancient Roman town-city near the modern Italian city of Naples. It is famed for being one of the ill-feted settlements destroyed and buried by the massive eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Along with Herculaneum, Pompeii is of particular interest and historical importance due to its preservation under the several metres of volcanic ash and pumice, protecting it from air and moisture. This created a snapshot of a moment in an ancient civilisation that would otherwise have been eroded by time.
