Mother Nature held no mercy on that faitful, catatrophic day. #Pompeii . You have to see the place to believe it. One of the most fascinating historical sites I've studied and continue to research.

A #RomanGlass cup made with coloured glass rods known as ‘millefiori’ from #Pompeii. It was preserved in the AD 79 Vesuvius eruption material. Glass objects like this are luxurious things and would have been expensive. 📷 my own, Naples Archaeological Museum. #FindsFriday

youtube.com/watch?v=kYJ4TK… The Last 24 Hours Mount #Vesuvius erupted violently, destroying the Roman cities of #Pompeii and #Herculaneum, along with surrounding villas. The eruption released 100,000 times the #thermal energy of the #Hiroshima #bombing. 12,000+ people died.

For those who are wondering, this is the full fresco panel from the Casa dell’Amore Punito (House of Punished Love), #Pompeii (VII.2.23), with the correct colors. Notice the difference? #MANN 📷 me (read ALT for deets)

Archaeologists just used AI to digitally reconstruct the face of a man killed in Vesuvius in AD 79. We're not just excavating the past anymore — we're rebuilding it pixel by pixel. This person has a face again after 1,947 years. #Archeology #AI #Pompeii #History

One of the most remarkable objects in #Pompeii is a marble table support with P. Casca Longus inscribed on it. Longus was the 1st assassin to stab Julius Caesar on #IdesOfMarch (today in 44 BC). On his death Longus’ possessions were auctioned & this table was bought by a Pompeian

Closest thing to a book in #Pompeii were the separate wax tablets tied together. It is pleasing to find that most depictions of them are in the hands or homes of women. #WorldBookDay #WorldBookDay2026

Hello old friends. Good to be back. #Pompeii #Vesuvius

A cat chilling amongst the #Roman ruins of #Pompeii - seemingly unimpressed by the historical significance of its surroundings! #RomanSiteSaturday

There are many faces of women in frescoes in Pompeii but I remain mesmerised by these two in particular with their unusual blue-grey sclera. They adorned the walls of a small room in the House of Leda, #Pompeii #InternationalWomensDay #IWD2026

Ancient Roman garden fresco from the 'House of the Golden Bracelet’ #Pompeii #Vesuvius #AD79 #Italy Painted onto damp plaster. The pigments fuse with the plaster to form a (very!) durable picture.

Happy Easter! Life imitating art. Fresco of dish of eggs from the Praedia of Julia Felix, #Pompeii and an exhibit of eggs that astonishingly survived the AD 79 eruption in Herculaneum. 🥚🥚🥚#EasterDay

The entrance to a building in #Roman #Pompeii - decorated with a beautiful monochrome mosaic #MosaicMonday #RomanArchaeology #Archaeology

A #Roman glass ridged bowl, in a lovely shade of pale green. It was made about 2000 years ago & was found in #Pompeii

Such a perky little day to be on site. #Pompeii

Section of a mosaic floor at the ‘House of the Faun’ #Pompeii #Vesuvius #AD79 #Italy With two lookouts, a delinquent dove lifts a string of pearls from a jewellery box. Interviewed by a centurion, the bird claimed the pearls 'were needed as nesting material'. A likely story.

And just before #InternationalWomensDay draws to a close I want to pay homage to the intrepid and intelligent women who have excavated and worked in #Pompeii in the past. I have learned from each of them and they’ve inspired me in different ways. Thank you for leading the way.

Two #Roman gladiator metal leg greaves, both decorated with religious imagery. The one on the left has the image of Minerva, with a shield & about to throw a spear; on the right, the image of a seated Venus. Both were found in #Pompeii & used in the arena about 2000 years ago.

A portion of a 1st century AD Roman fresco with the muse of astronomy and astrology named Urania, holding a globe. It was from a triclinium of the villa of Sulpicii in Moregine, Italy and is now on display in Pompeii. #fresco #pompeii #italy #astronomy #ancientrome #mosaicmonday

End of the day in #Pompeii.

A chink of light falls across the wall of the caldarium (hot room) in the women’s section of the Stabian baths in #Pompeii.

A loaf of #Roman bread, which was being baked in an oven in #Pompeii when Vesuvius erupted in AD 79; it was carbonised by the disaster & left in the oven until being excavated nearly 1800 years later.
