  2. In 79 AD, the #ancient #city of #Herculaneum was #overwhelmed and #buried by multiple #pyroclasticflows resulting from a devastating #eruption of Mount #Vesuvius. The city's everyday environment was abruptly #encased in #solidrock, allowing #organicmaterials to be #preserved better than in #Pompeii. These include the #Herculaneumpapyri (see ref).

  7. RE: social.uibk.ac.at/@uniinnsbruc

    The #ancient #Roman #city of #Pompeii at the Gulf of #Naples offers remarkably #wellpreserved #insights into #dailylife before it was buried by Mount #Vesuvius in 79 AD. G. Sürmelihindi et al. (2026) investigated the #carbonate #incrustations in the #baths, the #aqueduct, and in #wells, with the latter being replaced by the penultimate as #technical #improvement. The periodicity of #δ13C variations from wells and republican #pools indicated poor #hygienicconditions.
