This is an image of the Roman city of Pompeii. Pompeii is located in the Naples region of Italy. In 79 CE, the local volano, Mt. Vesuvius erupted without warning covering the city with soot and lava. The eruptions was so quick that the people were killed instantly. Because the laval and soot covered quickly, many of the people were petrified in the same place they were when the natural disaster happened. Bellow I have added some pictures of these people. They are still in Pompeii.

I think that the pictures of the bodies are soo interesting. I mean it is sad that they didn't have any warningor a chance to get away but I think it is interesting how the lava locked the bodies in place and we can still see them.
And I am glad that I don't live near a volcano!!!

It is amazing how their bodies to go to stone like that because I thought when lava comes into contact, I thought the bodies would bust in to falmes, not turn into statues.
