March 1944
The city that was preserved after the eruption of Mount Vesuvius is Pompeii.
Pompeii does not erupt. Pompeii was a city that was buried by ash and pumice in 79 AD, during an eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius.
pompeii had an eruption of mount vesuvius in 79AD on the 24th of august.
The last eruption for Mount Vesuvius was in 1944. I saw a movie on this today. If you didn't know, it also erupted in 79 A.D. in Pompeii killing 5,000 people. (1/4 of their entire population.)
79 AD
Mount Vesuvius destroyed the city of Pompeii.
no pompeii was founded many years before that but after the eruption of mount vesuvius, pompeii was rediscovered in 1599.
The 79 AD eruption of Mount Vesuvius, which destroyed Pompeii, was a Plinian eruption. In fact, it was the description of this eruption by Pliny the Younger that lead to the term Plinian.
Pompeii is located near Mount Vesuvius, which is a composite volcano. However, Pompeii itself is not a volcano but rather an ancient Roman city that was destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.
Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD, burying the city of Pompeii under a thick layer of volcanic ash and pumice. This catastrophic event resulted in the sudden and tragic destruction of the city and its inhabitants.
Pompeii was destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in A.D. 79, when the city was engulfed by lava.
