A dream! of beautiful frescos, rich colors, white plaster, and golden pillars , and statues, and magnificient gardens, with a great triangular mtn . in the horizon!!!
Just passed walking few days ago without a guide, thanks, the memories are still fresh. now it makes all more sense. Sad to know how many people were found in that house.
Some of the bodies found might have been those of looters, or otherwise of people who took refuge in the house during the final hours when pumice and and hot ash was raining down.
Thanks for this informatifs video. Could you make an animation, how they build the buildings, and what was the houses material made of ? Was it from cement? And what kind of paint they used made from ?
This is awesome. I am worried about the conservation of the frescoes though. Can't they get wet when there's rain and wind? It seems like that would ruin them.

By the time it had dried fully the paint had become 'fixed' in the hardened surface layer of plaster. This manner of painting is called _fresco_ and is very durable. Painting onto dry plaster is known as a _mural._
The house was being refurbished while a few centuries old? The craftsmanship was way better than today. I doubt my house would make it beyond 100 years...
1:11/7:35 to1:15/7:35 to...WHO were those Roman Teenagers who sat while "Cassandra trying to warn the Trojans not to take the wooden horse, as well as the PARTICIPATERS in the Play"?
Cassandra clings to the statue of Athena, but Laocoon and his sons are killed by a sea serpent sent by Minerva? you want to be more consistent. It's Athena, again. It's a Greek story, and so the gods keep their Greek names throughout.
People will explicitly find the nations who had been destroyed by Allah,just bcoz of their own mischiefs and corruption in earth. To trace out these signs,everyone should read the Holy Quran and take a lesson as a moral.Allah o Akbar☝️💓☝️
Thanks for this video. We are french students in art of history and it helps us on our work on House of Menander. We love you !!!!

I love these in-depth videos on Pompeii. ❤
Excellent both verbally and visually
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL HOME AND GARDEN!!!! I AM SO INSPIRED!!!!
Really good. Very informative past the stage of "this is an atrium". Excellent
Nuts how well built these ancient homes were
Nuts how poorly built the fiat homes are…
Excellent video. Thanks
THANKS FOR SHARING!!!! I LEARNED SO MUCH!!!
A TOTALLY AWSOME VIDEO AND EDUCATION!!!!
It’s amazing that Pompeii has so many in tact structures.

Trust to afford a concrete monolith this opulent during that time. These people deserved everything.
Loved it, thanks!
Great video ❤️
Excellent! I love pompeii
Excellent, coherent presentation. Thank you.
Good channel, nice narrator
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Muy hermoso, su video
Ecxcellent video.
Strange volcano eruption! Instead of destroying,it preserved everything.
Thanks for the video! The doomsday sound track... is it really needed?
Just subbed. Looks like a good channel :)
I am also loving this vid. One day I hope to go to Pompeii. And in the meantime, does anyone know what the track is in the background? Ty and saludos
I would like more still picture of the frescoes

2:40 That dude has no respect!
He should have been kicked out of Pompeii.
What happened at 2:40? I re- watched?
@@dianeleach9097 a man spat on the floor.
@@Izzy_Edward oh my god!! Is that why theyve been shaded out? I wouldve reported him...thats awful
@7:23ff what's in the second story?
This is awesome. I am worried about the conservation of the frescoes though. Can't they get wet when there's rain and wind? It seems like that would ruin them.
I’m no expert, but I was told once that romans had a method of somehow baking the paint into the walls, making them last longer.

Air pollution from the densely populated, busy Bay of Naples is also a serious concern for the paintings' preservation.
I thought Pompeii was buried during the eruption? Or were excavated all these years ? Please let us know how these houses came to light . Thx

Bellissimo!
And canals, fountains!

I'm surprised that the gold and silver didn't melt.
1:36 plis
The breach was possibly made by archeologists in the 18th century.
Yes
Yes, I was thinking that too. Or even ancient - or more modern - looters
RIP
Many of these frescos r much faded! the real ones back then before deluge were much more clearer and richer in colors!!
SUGGESTION: MORE PRINTED MEDIA. LIKE BOOKS AND MAGAZINES!!!!

Meanwhile in the rest of the world....
People will explicitly find the nations who had been destroyed by Allah,just bcoz of their own mischiefs and corruption in earth.
