August 24th, 79 A.D. was a day like any other in the ancient Roman town of Herculaneum. Citizens gathered in the town square, discussing Italian politics and trading business over lavish lunches. Little did they know that their time was running out: Herculaneum lay in the shadow of an active volcano, Mt. Vesuvius, which would soon erupt and devastate the area.
On that fateful day, Mt. Vesuvius violently erupted sending burning clouds of lava and gas towards the citizens of Herculaneum. The incredible power of nature caused massive destruction to life and property; within hours, all signs of life were obliterated from Herculaneum’s streets and homes as the volcanic material blotted out the sun’s light and filled up every corner with molten rock.
