When Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD, it buried the town of Pompeii under a thick layer of volcanic ash and pumice, preserving many buildings and artifacts. The eruption killed thousands of Pompeii's citizens, with some dying from the intense heat and others suffocating from ash and toxic gases. The city was abandoned and forgotten until its rediscovery in the 18th century.
The last time Mount Vesuvius erupted was 1944. It's best known eruption was in AD 79, at which time it destroyed the Roman city of Pompeii. There were warnings in the form of earthquakes, but the people nearby didn't recognize that they were in fact warning signs of an impending eruption.
No, people just think that it was extinct because it had not erupted in a long period of time.
