Pompeii is a vast archaeological site in southern Italy’s Campania region, near the coast of the Bay of Naples. Once a thriving and sophisticated Roman city, Pompeii was buried under meters of ash and pumice after the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D.
The preserved site features excavated ruins of streets and houses that visitors can freely explore. The city is famous all because of the disaster that struck in 79 CE when a nearby volcano, Mount Vesuvius, erupted, and covered the city in 19 feet of ash and other volcanic debris.
The ruins were discovered late in the 16th century. This documentary allows you to explore the cutting-edge science and sophisticated Hollywood production techniques featured in the landmark special Pompeii: Disaster Street.
