Nearly 2,000 years ago, the erupting Mt. Vesuvius covered the bustling Roman metropolis of Pompeii in volcanic ash. Archaeologists are still uncovering buried portions of the city, piecing together a tantalizing puzzle about life before the disaster. Correspondent Seth Doane reports.

"in a almost scary way" he said smiling with his scary white teeth. What a guy !! 😂😂
It could very well be that no future generations are as good at archeology as we are today, or that it may be many thousands of years before such proficiency is attained. Ironically, that is a lesson learned from the collapse of Roman civilization.
The Lararium is not dead. Many still use the Lararium at their home.. Including me. And mark my words. One day, a large portion of the world will use the Lararium again.
So interesting, I hope to see it soon.
Reparations for the slaves I say.
I was just there a few months ago.
More fake paper mache “ruins”
Why’d the interviewer ask the wrong questions 🫠
if the story of pompei is true
and that is the religions side of story on why was it destroyed
then we should realy look at our world now
One of the most interesting places on planet earth. Go out of your way to visit.
While visiting it started raining like a storm was coming in, I had to wait in one of the ruins, to wait it out. A few minutes passed and it was sunny again. I could see Mt. Vesuvius in the horizon and I realized how quickly things must have changed for Pompeiians on that day.
What was the film that was shown at the beginning of this please?
Wow
quid horrendum lingua anglicus
I think, Pompeii is the famous tourist spot in those years. Incredible architecture of houses, buildings and even inside of every houses.
Yes indeed future we will have many incidents similar to pompei taking place …thanks to cancel truth and sanity culture
Lord, that "Pompeii" movie was SO bad.
Now this was truly scientific.
I strongly disapprove that you made the beginning movie piece so LOUD. Humans are very good at imagining how loud sounds really would be without your effort. And you can't make it as loud as it was in reality anyway, so why cause such disturbance.
Five minutes?
having been it's an amazing place, very sad and quiet in places, shame the artefacts are not in a museum, on or near the site. It takes two days to see the site and travel to the museum.
What an awesome piece. Sunday Morning and 60 Minutes…… can’t be touched.
😲
A book should be written about the bodies found at Pompeii. They could call it " pain in the ash"😅
They censored Greek art. sigh
Weird that you would describe Romans as a pagan society. They were presicely the opposite of that during the time of pompeii.
terrible faces but what a prize for society (sad combo)
All the nasty pictures will be exposed.
Look at the colore of those frescoes or paintings on the walls of those buildings. wow. when you add color to statues, walls and stone columns and streets, you realize that ancient rome was not a boring place.
The sun and the moon at the end is a contemporary, commercially available wall hanging, not a Pomepeiian relic !
Gods wrath, when people dont listen to JESUS CHRIST
I love it .i want to go see it my self
2:15 couldn’t concentrate on the story after seeing THIS eye candy 😅❤
Astaghfirullah…….
Amazing thank you.❤👍🏼👍🏼
Just imagine if the volcano epult again😱😨😫
Ancient civilization was not so primitive. Think what Jerusalem must have looked like about the time of Christ. An early Roman version of a modern Pipe Organ could have played in Jerusalem. Pompeii should open our minds. Ancient Babylon also probably looked similar in some ways.
We didn’t really evolve that much if you look at their basket, pottery , oven , paintings, seems like we just inherit most of it from our ancestors and copied it..
Plz, let them find a private library, with missing works of the the greats!
I like how the roads have been hit with a volcano eruption, earthquakes, a tsunami and they are ancient yet they still look better the roads in Michigan.
Hard to imagine what actually happened 😮
They ! Should ! Finish ! Digging ! Out ! The Rest ! Of ? The City !!!! So ! We ! Can ! Have ,! A . Complete ? Record !.. BEFORE ,!!! The INEVITABLE!!!! NEXT ! 🌋 ERUPTION! Of ! The Vesuvius ,!🌋
