HERCULANEUM – Italy ???????? [HD]
Video and photos in HD I have made during my trip to the ancient Roman Empire town of Herculaneum in Italy in 2011. The video includes the following highlights: original wall paintings, houses, mosaics, frescoes, streets of Herculaneum, ruins, Casa di Nettuno e Anfitrite (House of Neptune and Amphitrite), Bottega del Lanarius (Lanarius Shop), Sede degli Augustali (Hall of the Augustals), Bottega ad Cucumas (Cucumas shop), Casa dell'Atrio a Mosaico (House of the Mosaic Atrium), Terrazza di M. Nonio Balbo (Terrace of M. Nonius Balbus), views of Mount (Volcano) Vesuvius.
As always thank you for watching and for your great comments!

SwissTravelChannel is a YouTube channel of my holiday’s trips videos, taken all around the world since 2008. Some are for pure tourism and others are more of an adventure. The videos usually show the top best tourist attractions, the top things to do and top places to see. The goal is to inspire others on their next vacations. The videos can also be seen as a guide to have an idea of the main highlights and places to explore. I love to take pictures of the nature, traditions and different cultures, to search the must-see spots and show the essentials in my videos, for this reason I always try to create the perfect vacation. Traveling is more than a hobby for me, is a way of life.

HERCULANEUM (source Wikipedia):
Located in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius, Herculaneum (Italian: Ercolano) was an ancient Roman town destroyed by volcanic pyroclastic flows in 79 AD. Its ruins are located in the comune of Ercolano, Campania, Italy.
As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is famous as one of the few ancient cities that can now be seen in much of its original splendour, as well as for having been lost, along with Pompeii, Stabiae, Oplontis and Boscoreale, in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79 that buried it. Unlike Pompeii, the deep pyroclastic material which covered it preserved wooden and other organic-based objects such as roofs, beds, doors, food and even some 300 skeletons which were discovered in recent years along the seashore. It had been thought until then that the town had been evacuated by the inhabitants.
Herculaneum was a wealthier town than Pompeii, possessing an extraordinary density of fine houses with, for example, far more lavish use of coloured marble cladding.
The catastrophic eruption of Mt. Vesuvius occurred on the afternoon of 24 August AD 79. Because Vesuvius had been dormant for approximately 800 years, it was no longer even recognized as a volcano. Based on archaeological excavations and on two letters of Pliny the Younger to the Roman historian Tacitus, the course of the eruption can be reconstructed.
At around 1pm on 24 August, Vesuvius began spewing volcanic ash and stone thousands of meters into the sky. When it reached the tropopause (the boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere), the top of the cloud flattened, prompting Pliny to describe it to Tacitus as a Stone Pine tree. The prevailing winds at the time blew toward the southeast, causing the volcanic material to fall primarily on the city of Pompeii and the surrounding area. Since Herculaneum lay to the west of Vesuvius, it was only mildly affected by the first phase of the eruption. While roofs in Pompeii collapsed under the weight of falling debris, only a few centimetres of ash fell on Herculaneum, causing little damage but nonetheless prompting most inhabitants to flee.
During the following night, the eruptive column which had risen into the stratosphere collapsed onto Vesuvius and its flanks. The first pyroclastic surge, formed by a mixture of ash and hot gases, billowed through the mostly evacuated town of Herculaneum at 160 km/h (100 mph). A succession of six flows and surges buried the city's buildings, causing little damage in some areas and preserving structures, objects and victims almost intact. However, in other areas there was significant damage, knocking down walls, tearing away columns and other large objects; a marble statue of M. Nonius Balbus near the baths was blown 15 m away and a carbonised skeleton was found lifted 2.5 m above ground level in the garden of the House of the Telephus Relief.
Recent multidisciplinary research on the lethal effects of the pyroclastic surges in the Vesuvius area showed that in the vicinity of Pompeii and Herculaneum, heat was the main cause of the death of people who had previously been thought to have died by ash suffocation.

Pompeii, One Of The Most Popular Tourist Attractions In Italy
Pompeii was an ancient city located in what is now the comune of Pompei, near Naples in the Campania region of Italy. Pompeii, along with Herculaneum and many villas in the surrounding area (e.g. At Boscoreale, Stabiae), was buried under 4 to 6 m (13 to 20 ft) of volcanic ash and pumice in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79.
Largely preserved under the ash, the excavated city offered a unique snapshot of Roman life, frozen at the moment it was buried, although much of the detailed evidence of the everyday life of its inhabitants was lost in the excavations. It was a wealthy town, enjoying many fine public buildings and luxurious private houses with lavish decorations, furnishings and works of art which were the main attractions for the early excavators. Organic remains, including wooden objects and human bodies, were entombed in the ash. Over time, they decayed, leaving voids which archaeologists found could be used as molds to make plaster casts of unique, and often gruesome, figures in their final moments of life. The numerous graffiti carved on the walls and inside rooms provide a wealth of examples of the largely lost Vulgar Latin spoken colloquially at the time, contrasting with the formal language of the classical writers.

Il Museo del Parco Nazionale del Vesuvio a Boscoreale: il vulcano tra storia, scienza e attualità
Il Centro culturale - Museo del Parco Nazionale del Vesuvio, a Boscoreale (Napoli), è composto da un complesso di edifici: un polo espositivo, un auditorium e un’arena all’aperto. Il polo espositivo ospita il Museo del Parco Nazionale del Vesuvio e un Centro Multimediale, oltre ad un bookshop e alla sede operativa del Reparto Carabinieri Parco di Boscoreale. ENGLISH. The Cultural Center - Museum of the Vesuvius National Park is made up of a complex of buildings: an exhibition center, an auditorium and an outdoor arena. The exhibition center houses the Vesuvius National Park Museum and a Multimedia Center, as well as a bookshop and the headquarters of the Boscoreale Park Carabinieri Department. The Park Museum, consisting of three large rooms connected by two short corridors, is set up with illustrative panels, multimedia equipment, display cases, dioramas, videos and interactive games, according to a common thread that is the description of the Vesuvian soil starting from the rock mother, generated by volcanic events; of the events that generate its transformation into humus, of its link with the plant and animal environment, and with man. Four flower beds are also part of this layout, representing some of the main Vesuvian environmental systems. The Multimedia Center includes four environments, within which a path made of panels and multimedia installations, partly interactive, unfolds, describing some aspects of life and nutrition in the Vesuvius area before 79 AD. The auditorium has a total area of about 1,300 square meters, with an audience capable of accommodating 324 spectators. The Municipality, as part of the setting up of the Multimedia Center, has foreseen in the Auditorium the projection of a film lasting about 25 minutes, entitled Pompeii Stories in History in which, against the background of a virtual reconstruction of ancient Pompeii , some characters tell the last moments of life before the eruption of 79 AD Finally, the open arena, located between the auditorium and the exhibition center, can accommodate up to 350 spectators, and is also equipped with a projector and a motorized screen for evening projections. The structure, even if not directly, is connected to the network of the main Vesuvian attractions: Villa Regina and Antiquarium of Boscoreale, the crater of Vesuvius, Pompeii and Herculaneum excavations and museum seat of the Vesuvian Observatory, because it summarizes the main aspects of each of these sites.

Picture 10: The fourth panel of the Initiation fresco, depicting the end of the Initiation process, including a feast with current members of the cult. (There is one more panel, but it could not be seen since the room was roped off and the panel was against the wall of the doorway with the rope.)
Picture 11: The original 'Dog' plaster cast from Pompeii, Italy which is held in the museum at the country villa site of Boscoreale. The dog was chained in a yard and fought to get free before the toxins killed him and made his muscles contract. Viewing the cast you can see the fur, paws, collar and teeth.
Picture 11: The Boar from the site of Pompeii, Italy. On the Boar you can see the bones- the only plaster cast containing original bone- which appear as brittle reeds to the viewer because of their fragile and damaged state. The Boar is in the museum at the country villa site of Boscoreale.
Picture 12: A room in the Oplontis Villa, the country villa of Poppea- Nero's second wife. The room has a shrine area- lararium- for the household gods. It also has two windows which open into 'plant' areas between rooms.

Pompeii, An Ancient City near Naples. Destroyed by Mount Vesuvius Erruption. - Pompeii Italy - ECTV
Pompeii (/pɒmˈpeɪ(i)/, Latin: [pɔmˈpei̯.iː]) was an ancient city located in what is now the comune of Pompei near Naples in the Campania region of Italy. Pompeii, along with Herculaneum and many villas in the surrounding area (e.g. at Boscoreale, Stabiae), was buried under 4 to 6 m (13 to 20 ft) of volcanic ash and pumice in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79.
Largely preserved under the ash, the excavated city offered a unique snapshot of Roman life, frozen at the moment it was buried,[1] although much of the detailed evidence of the everyday life of its inhabitants was lost in the excavations.[2] It was a wealthy town, with a population of 20,000 in AD 79, enjoying many fine public buildings and luxurious private houses with lavish decorations, furnishings and works of art which were the main attractions for the early excavators. Organic remains, including wooden objects and human bodies, were entombed in the ash. Over time, they decayed, leaving voids which archaeologists found could be used as moulds to make plaster casts of unique, and often gruesome, figures in their final moments of life. The numerous graffiti carved on the walls and inside rooms provide a wealth of examples of the largely lost Vulgar Latin spoken colloquially at the time, contrasting with the formal language of the classical writers.
Pompeii is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Italy, with approximately 2.5 million visitors annually.[3]
After many excavations prior to 1960 that had uncovered most of the city but left it in decay,[4] further major excavations were banned and instead they were limited to targeted, prioritised areas. In 2018, these led to new discoveries in some previously unexplored areas of the city.[5][6][7][8]
Pompeii in Latin is a second declension masculine plural noun (Pompeiī, -ōrum). According to Theodor Kraus, The root of the word Pompeii would appear to be the Oscan word for the number five, pompe, which suggests that either the community consisted of five hamlets or perhaps it was settled by a family group (gens Pompeia).[9]
Pompeii was built about 40 m (130 ft) above sea level on a coastal lava plateau created by earlier eruptions of Mount Vesuvius, (8 km (5.0 mi) distant). The plateau fell steeply to the south and partly the west and into the sea. Three sheets of sediment from large landslides lie on top of the lava, perhaps triggered by extended rainfall.[10] The city bordered the coastline, though today it is 700 m (2,300 ft) away. The mouth of the navigable Sarno River, adjacent to the city, was protected by lagoons and served early Greek and Phoenician sailors as a safe haven and port which was developed further by the Romans.
Pompeii covered a total of 64 to 67 hectares (160 to 170 acres) — or about ¼ mile² — and was home to 11,000 to 11,500 people, based on household counts.[11]
History
Although best known for its Roman remains visible today, dating from AD 79, it was built upon a substantial city dating from much earlier times. Expansion of the city from an early nucleus (the old town) accelerated already from 450 BC under the Greeks after the battle of Cumae.[12]
Early history
Settlement phases of Pompeii
red: 1st (Samnite) town

Etruscan Temple of Apollo
The first stable settlements on the site date back to the 8th century BC when the Oscans,[13] a population of central Italy, founded five villages in the area.
With the arrival of the Greeks in Campania from around 740 BC, Pompeii entered the orbit of the Hellenic people and the most important building of this period is the Doric Temple,[14] built away from the centre in what would later become the Triangular Forum.[15]: 62 At the same time the cult of Apollo was introduced.[16] Greek and Phoenician sailors used the location as a safe port.
In the early 6th century BC, the settlement merged into a single community centred on the important crossroad between Cumae, Nola, and Stabiae and was surrounded by a tufa city wall (the pappamonte wall).[17][18] The first wall (which was also used as a base for the later wall) unusually enclosed a much greater area than the early town together with much agricultural land.[19] That such an impressive wall was built at this time indicates that the settlement was already important and wealthy. The city began to flourish, and maritime trade started with the construction of a small port near the mouth of the river.[15] The earliest settlement was focused in regions VII and VIII of the town (the old town) as identified from stratigraphy below the Samnite and Roman buildings, as well as from the different and irregular street plan.

Fascinating place. The city was frozen in time during the eruption of Vesuvius. The plaster casts of the bodies they found are eerie and sad.

Herculaneum or Ercolano ruins
A glimpse of one of the most preserved city ruin in the world,its a must to visit.
Located in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius, Herculaneum (Italian: Ercolano) was an ancient Roman town destroyed by volcanic pyroclastic flows in 79 AD. Its ruins are located in the commune of Ercolano, Campania, Italy.
As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is famous as one of the few ancient cities that can now be seen in much of its original splendour, as well as for having been lost, along with Pompeii, Stabiae, Oplontis and Boscoreale, in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79 that buried it. Unlike Pompeii, the deep pyroclastic material which covered it preserved wooden and other organic-based objects such as roofs, beds, doors, food and even some 300 skeletons which were discovered in recent years along the seashore. It had been thought until then that the town had been evacuated by the inhabitants.
Herculaneum was a wealthier town than Pompeii, possessing an extraordinary density of fine houses with, for example, far more lavish use of coloured marble cladding. Source Wiki
Pompeii’s Sad Ending - Bodies Petrified in the Moment
Pompeii was an ancient Roman city located in the modern comune of Pompeii near Naples in the Campania region of Italy. Pompeii, along with Herculaneum and many villas in the surrounding area (e.g. at Boscoreale, Stabiae), was buried under 4 to 6 m (13 to 20 ft) of volcanic ash and pumice in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79.
Objects buried beneath Pompeii were well-preserved for almost 2,000 years as the lack of air and moisture allowed little to no deterioration. However, once exposed, Pompeii has been subject to both natural and man-made forces, which have rapidly increased deterioration.

The numerous graffiti carved on the walls and inside rooms provide a wealth of examples of the largely lost Vulgar Latin spoken colloquially at the time, contrasting with the formal language of the classical writers.
Pompeii is a UNESCO World Heritage Site status and is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Italy, with approximately 2.5 million visitors annually.
After many excavations prior to 1960 that had uncovered most of the city but left it in decay,[3] further major excavations were banned and instead they were limited to targeted, prioritised areas. In 2018, these led to new discoveries in some previously unexplored areas of the city.
