Pompeii was an ancient
Roman city, buried by a volcanic eruption. 2000 years later,
archaeologists uncovered the city. The people in ancient Pompeii
did not have a chance to escape. The city had been quickly buried by
volcanic ash.
When archaeologists dug
out the city, two thousand years later, they found petrified bread
still in the ovens that had been baking that day. Archaeologists
learned a great deal from the ruins of this ancient city because it
had been so well preserved.
