You must and to Herculaneum - but if you go you have to go to the museum in Naples where most of the portable artefacts from Pompeii are housed - you could spend days there there is so much to see
Number 2 my friend. You really must see Herculaneum, destroyed along side Pompei on 79ad. Herculaneum is better preserved as it was covered by pyroclastic materials.
Go with a small group and a professional guide. It’s difficult to hear all the details even if they give you an earpiece if you are with a large group. Wear capable shoes like hiking style and bring a good camera. You won’t regret it.
I always love these types of documentaries where they attempt to piece together the way ordinary people may have lived. So much more fascinating. This is particularly good as they’ve even found the names of a few of them.
My time in Pompeii was too short. I never saw anything like this. The theaters weren't available. Never take a tour to a place like this. You need all day to see Pompeii and another to see the museums in Naples, not to mention Herculaneum.
It took me three visits over three years to see Pompeii, Herculaneum, and Ostia. I memorized maps and when I went to these places, I was my own tour guide. Better to go it alone than to ever waste time on a tour!
I am so used to having and frequently getting food from fast food restaurants, with there packaging food items in paper containers for either eating in house or takeout/takeaway. I'm curious to know how customers at these ancient therapolia (restaurants) would do takeout/takeaway orders. (Bring their own reusable containers,maybe) What about customers who want to dine in the restaurant. Would the restaurant supply the diner with restaurants 'plates'. There would be a risk of theft of 'plates' especially if diners wish to take any leftovers with them.
Walking the streets and entering a home's atrium felt familiar seeing the casts of people and seeing the cast of dog still tethered at the time of death literally going back in time The guide Sergio asked if I would walk with him so Surreal
I've always thought of Roman architecture as just marble and solid white concrete. I never realized how much red brick they used. Pretty crazy how similar their red brick work looks like today's brick.
The wine from Gaza came from further away & thus was probably more expensive. Which would explain the single amphora. Yes they may have sold more of the other stuff but that was probably also price related. We know from later European records that wine tradition had been kept relatively the same since the romans up to the middle ages & renaissance.
@@suzannewassink3914 there is usually only two reasons they would use a modern name like Gaza, either the original name is lost to history, or more often, people more easily recognise the location of the modern name.
Artificial intelligence, in constructing images related to Pompeii, would do well not to use those of Fayyum, which is in Egypt, while Pompeii is in Italy. The people depicted in those portraits are from Roman times, but they belong to Egyptian families of mixed Egyptian-Greek ethnicity. Although Americans like to think otherwise, the majority of Pompeii's inhabitants were not African, but European.
I knew something was suspicious about the Julia Felix portrait. All the frescoes depict images of lighter skinned Europeans, while Julia's "portrait" was more exotic looking. At first I assumed that she may have been mixed or may have simply had more Mediterranean features, but after looking her up (just out of general interest -not to see what she looked like) I soon realized there is no portrait of her that's survived. So, the portrait they used was fake and I dare say deceptive. "Although Americans like to think otherwise, " I'm American and don't know anyone who thinks Pompeii's inhabitants were "African," except maybe Afro-centrists.
The portraits on the cover are from Egypt called the Fayoum mummy of Egyptians & has no link whatsoever with pompei or rome other than the fact that they existed in the 1st century Egypt under Roman rule, the channel shouldn't have used them as a cover to the documentary linking them to pompei whichvis not true! Even the artists who drew this are Egyptian nothing roman here at all!
@@TLhky98 I noticed it. I was suspicious when I saw it but realized it was not authentic when I searched up Julia Felix. The fact that her Wiki page has no image of her is a pretty good indication there are no surviving portraits.
Oh gee the narrator sitting on his moral high ground, as if we are soo differant to those of the past. And then the so called "gladiator baracks" that as of newest reseach are more of a market and have zero to do with the gladiators only that the square is near the amphitheater.
I Think Julia Felix Is Not Pure Pompeian At All Maybe She's A Half Blooded Pompei Felix Surename Is Not Pompei Or Italian Descendants At All It's More Like English
@@JoshuaMarvillaRalisay-mx2xb …Latin was the main language of Ancient Rome, and the ancestral language of modern Italian. So yes, she would have spoken Latin. There is no evidence she was “half” anything - she had a common Roman surname for Ancient Rome, based on the Latin language, which they spoke.
So you're totally clueless to the fact that you're using the Latin alphabet and that a significant number of English words derive from Latin. And lol @ "English surname" -there were no "surnames" in England back then.
The childrens graffiti was cool. Just like WWE....with death. People were much better off mentally 2000 years ago. Children were tought at a young age that the world is a vicious place...deal with it.
1st of all... Those are so called Estruscans/Mayans in the thumbnail/mosiac/murals, Now what you all got to say? Who built these so called ancient ruins of "Pompeii".
They were really bloodthirsty, cold people, thrilled to watch fellow humans ripped apart and eaten alive by wild animals probably for petty “crimes”…. Kind of like radical Islamist societies today…as recently as the 18th century torture was acceptable in Europe…I wonder, if torture and brutality were perfectly legal, would we be carrying on like the Pompeiians?

Pompeii, the #1 location I want to visit sometime soon in my life.
Finally, an docu about Pompeii that doesn’t focus on the disaster.

Got the chance to visit during a Med cruise in 2019! Fabulous place to see and such a tragic end.

As folk are saying, do Herculaneum too. And Pompeii will take a whole day. Don’t book anything else that day.
Go with a small group and a professional guide. It’s difficult to hear all the details even if they give you an earpiece if you are with a large group. Wear capable shoes like hiking style and bring a good camera. You won’t regret it.

Absolutely fascinating.
This was great, thanks!

We need one week to see almost every think

It's almost as if get got the idea from them..
This was REALLY BEAUTIFUL!
Thank you so much!❤❤❤
Great vodeo! When I was there, my Roman friend and I wandered around and found pine nuts dropped from a tree and ate them.
Very well done and informative. Thank you.
One of my dreams is to visit pompeii
Amazing video!
Love this Chanel
Loved pompeii 😊

I dont understand why the call it gaza because the gaza strip started in 1948 when Israël officialy became a state.
Just say Middle Ages. "The Renaissance" is mostly myth and there were many 'renaissances' in the Middle Ages.

close ties between egypt and rome

It isn't "thermopolium", it is "caupona":))
This figure is of Roman Egypt, not Pompeii...
I came here to see if anyone noticed that. Hard to trust a documentary that makes a big mistake like that. It’s a famous portrait.

Gaza! 🤯
Please turn background music off 📴
I can always hear them talking just fine even with the music.
I'm neither a number, nor a free man.
Who were the slaves and they dark skinned people on the walls? The eruption of Pompeii was judgment from the creator of heaven and earth. More to come

Felix is Latin for “lucky” and was a well-established name in Ancient Rome.

The Mayans and the Estruscans are two different people who lived on two different continents and had different cultures.

Talk about romantisizing, let's not forget this was the first reich.
The kingdom of egypt is much much older. So,not the first

knowledge of fake history apart, dont you think that you should start on analyzing yourself ?! 🤔
It all bs and you know it !
what exactly do you think this was then? some elaborate ploy for tourism??
Pompeii never happening is a...choice in thinking.
