This message is for everyone who is reading it: The Lord Jesus came down from heaven, sent by God the Father, to teach us how to live, and to die/pay for our sins on the cross. Then God raised Him from the dead on the third day. He is now seated at the right hand of the Father. Now, God commands everyone who is reading this message to repent (turn away from your sinful ways), and to put their faith in Jesus for the forgiveness of sins. Don’t die in your sins: Repent, and put your faith in Jesus. The Lord Jesus came to save, not to condemn. The Lord is coming soon. (John 3:17)
Except todays kids use crayons, paint & anything else they can find in a house that will stain. My brother has 4 my sister has 6, I’ve seen the disasters 😂
Yeah it is incredible. And we probably will never discover everything due to modern cities being built on top of Pompeii and Herculaneum. Imagine what rooms and objects are still sitting filled with dirt and not seen for centuries
I visited Pompeii twice, second time in January 2009, in heavy rain 🌧️ and cold! This ancient city will moved you, to see daily life frozen in time by the ashes. Roman ruins are all over the Mediterranean coast, AKA the former Roman empire. I got to visit Troy and Ephesus in Turkey in June 2019, fascinating!
Considering everybody thinks ancient Rome was white statues and bare stone, having this look into how beautifully they painted their walls is priceless
It's now known the statues were painted. Exam under electron microscopes have revealed specs of colored paint. Over the centuries the paint has flaked off due to weather, etc..
It’s incredible! The vibrant blues and reds, even black painted walls in the banquet room. And all the ornate frescos-this must have been the house of a very wealthy family.
you wouldn't survive a day in the stench, filth and crime ridden back alleys....only the super rich had those villa's ..the rest scraped by in short , harsh and stress filled lives
So did I until I found out how much they made. Got a degree in finance instead and got stuck at a trading desk for 25 years. Wish I went the archeology route now.
This is amazing! This is big! Seeing the decorations and artworks and colors in that good a shape and still there, it does add alot to our perception and how we imagined how things looked back then.
Incredible. I’m a big history & military history buff, & the Roman Era is one of my favorite subjects. Going to Rome & seeing the Forum & Coliseum were some of the most thought provoking & amazing experiences of my life. Unfortunately I never made it to Pompeii or Herculaneum. When you see these ruins & read about it with supplemental historical sources it makes you realize how advanced & developed Roman civilization was back then. Of course, it’s horrifying to contemplate that fateful day when Vesuvius erupted & buried the city & killed all the people; it’s truly nightmarish to contemplate. The amazing thing is though we often look back in history with a condescending prejudice & arrogantly believe we are so more advanced while they were primitive simpletons. We take so much for granted now. When you think of simpler societies you begin to understand while some had to devote themselves to survival & sustenance, many had developed sophisticated systems that allowed more serious pursuits than just hunting, gathering & farming. In many ways, it seems the citizens of the Roman Empire lived more advanced & comfortable lives than in more recent periods like the Middle Ages or at least didn’t have the squalor or large scale issues of the time ravaging their societies. If this era interests you I highly recommend watching English Roman Historian Mary Beard’s documentaries. She is entertaining & extremely knowledgable, but her passion on Roman history is infectious.
Was in Pompeii, Herculaneum and Rome in June! BREATHTAKING! Simply breathtaking! All of the ruins! Went to Pompeii Archaeological Park twice and still didn't get a chance to see everything that I would have liked to have seen!! Still though, they were amazing experiences that I will take to my grave!!
The funniest thing about Pompeii if you've ever visited is that the city decided it would be cool to add some modern art and a Pizza/gift shop in the middle of the ruins, lol.
I have been there, it's so beautiful but what we're usually not told is that Pompeei is still a modern city, that people live in, the historical ruins are just a part of it and its only tourist attraction.
So Helen of Troy references are "displays of eloquence"? How much time until we lose THAT too? I guess it doesn't really matter whether our 1/15th of the world population starts doing "Native American" things, like "Falsely Asserting That Modern-Day Party Supplies Are Used In Our 'Traditional' Ceremonies, Just Because We Took The Time To Strive To Become The Definition Of 'Modernity'". Seriously, though: Will it ANGER THEM, though, if we literally started doing this in 2024? Will they need to schedule a community discussion about this, simply to inform them that they need to tell their kids not to get aggressive over this? They "got too high" last time. Just kidding, they stopped Expecting anyone to hold them accountable for that, so it would be "crossing the line" to bring it up.
European Television: “There has been an interesting new discovery in the ruins of the city of Pompeii.” American Television: “WOOOW! This is amazing! Look at this, guys! Soooo vibrant! I just can’t believe it!”
Surely all my stories know the amazingness of Pompeii and how the technology for design and even decoration was implemented in Pompeii away that has not been seen other parts of the world do your research so amazing that this was preserved so nicely in fact it’s almost preserved so well in such a long time it makes you wonder how things are made out how cheaply things are made something so intricate and beautiful made from all materials can exist through time justAs this
And what's even more interesting is the fact that perhaps Pompeii was built on top of an even older city. The layers keep going and going with these types of things.
I have recently been fascinated by the Cahokia Mounds in the USA.We have so few "ancient" things on our continent because of the building materials. It fascinates me that we will have a more in depth understanding of this ancient culture that is far away than the one literally next door to me. I ponder what they will find left behind by us...
Yeah, that's clearly not a pizza. It's rather a bruschetta or similar. A bread with stuff on. That's a precursor to pizza, absolutely. But not a pizza.
Amazing how American journalists can make such a fascinating topic sound idiotic and childish. Not a word said about why the blue room is considered to be a shrine, and not just a blue room. Can’t burden the viewers I suppose with too much information.
"Are we ON a Roman road yet?" Madam, you're in Pompeii! The answer, of course, is yes (except to an American, apparently). Kudos to the gentleman for being extremely polite faced with... that!

You’d love Arizona. They’re literally all over the state.
Expensive too. Lol
I was in Detroit once.
Come to Oakland California you'll love it
The doodles attributed to children are charming, and in their way even more precious than the fine painted decorations being brought to light.
Human behavior remains the same.
It's like Olfin's drawings. He lived about 800 years ago and drew doodles and practiced writing on birch bark that was preserved. Super cute drawings.

Actually, Pompeii was discovered over a hundred years ago. This wasn't just "discovered" since most of Pompeii has yet to be unearthed.
Brushes modern technology lol
@@mannysolo4698 please stop brainwashing people.

Painted quite brightly and what we would consider garish.

The drawings in the banquet room were exquisite. My favorite, though, was the kids’ graffiti; the more things change, the more they stay the same.
I love new discoveries at Pompeii. Keep digging!
This is absolutely amazing! The preservation of the pigment after a huge natural disaster like that is incredible!
Fascinating. The people that lived back then were and are absolutely no different than those living today.

Roman archeology is my favorite archeology.
Amazing! Wow. Just wow. I love history.
Whaaaaaaaat??? This is insane! Wow. My mind is officially blown! 😳😍
We visited the Pompeii exhibit in Chicago at the Field Museum in 1978.
This video is everything!
Absolutely amazing! Love this stuff
it’s reassuring to know our ancestors were so similar to us. Times change drastically but humanity remains similar
Woooah those frescoes up top on the walls were fascinating.
Its nice to see actual good interesting news
Wow the paintings on the wall being small is really nice looking, and practical with the cost of paints
This is so amazing. Wow!
Not a pizza, but an "open faced pie", which is what a pizza is.
Even in ancient Pompeii they were arguing about what real pizza is
Most important is to be watchful for people that will show up to try to destroy art in the name of whatever group they belong to.

2000 years.😮
200 years feels like a long long time
I saw these ruins as a child decades ago. It is the most amazing ruins in our lifetime and prove that besides electricity they lived like we do.
So beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful!
“They will be working on this site for several months” not like they have been digging in Pompeii since before America became free 😂
European Television: “There has been an interesting new discovery in the ruins of the city of Pompeii.”

And they have to explain to the viewers what Pompeii is, because many of them may not know :(
Yes. This is so ridiculous and seems so stpd.
Also what the group of TV people sais..
Didn't they learn anything at school?
Amazing how much was preserved.

Ancient history remains intact and seeing how Mount Vesuvius had wiped out the city of Pompeii in volcanic ash. That’s beyond anyone’s amazement.
The hand tracing on the wall made me cry. We are more connected to the past than we think.
beautiful blue
And what's even more interesting is the fact that perhaps Pompeii was built on top of an even older city. The layers keep going and going with these types of things.
Wow! Just wow!
I’m amazing about the discovery and their culture, so sad they can’t prevent the tragedy of the volcano.
The frequent earthquakes were a warning, but the people had no idea.
Amazing 😎
Was there sometime in March of this year, if you can check these places out , you won’t regret it
That'll be $3,500 in NYC monthly rent please

There's a new study which shows the extent of Cahokia. It covered easily 1/2 the U.S.
There are many ancient artifacts and sites in Mesoamerica (Mexico and Central America), which is part of the North American continent.
