Pompeii

 



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.
