I can't believe that Naples is only eight miles away from Mt.Vesuvius.(Michael B.)
When Mt Vesuvius erupted in 79 A.D. the people of Pompeii thought that there gods where upset.Mt. Vesuvius erupted and reached the temperature of 1000 degrees.Pompeii was excavated in 1594. There has been 12 more eruptions since 1594.
-Jordan F.
Mt. Vesuvious buried all the traces of Pompeii.Herculaneum was gone in seconds. Its temperature was more than 1000 degrees Farinheit. Napoles is eighteen miles away.
A'Kenah B.
The state of Italy has the biggest eruped to every happen by Mt. Vesuvious on 8/24/79 a.d.The cloud of gas killed most of the people there by going down they lungs.This is a very amazing thing.
-Rachel D.
We, in Mrs. Vinson's class, are learning about the ancient city of pompeii.Here are some facts about it.
*The eruption of Mt. Vesuvius on August 24, 79 A.D was probably the most famous eruption in history.
*When veuvius erupted, it seemed that day turned to night and the people thougt that the Greek gods were upset about something.
*But before that, there were tremors in the early morning
*Lava(that was over 1000F) and ash spewed out of the volcano and anything that touched it was instantly incinerated!!!
*But there was another problem, there was a gaping hole in MT. Vesuvius that caused a pyroclastic surge.And the first surge hit the city of Hurculaneum.
By the time the eruption was over, over 10,000,000,000 tons of rock had been spewed from the volcano.

We are learning about Pompeii as of now and i have learned some rather interesting and wonderful facts.
Vesuvius collapsed 1,700 years ago, devestating the lives of the residents of the wonderful town, Pompeii. The toxic fumes entered their lungs and killed many people, suffocating them.
This disaster killed around 5,000 people, more or less.The remains and rubble were discovered 1,700 years later while construction workers dug an aquaduct.
The burning lava incinerated the poor people, and worst of all, most of these poor unfortunate souls lost their lives in their homes!!!!! May all of these innocent souls rest in peace.
-Tyrah J. New
The temperture of the stuff falling on Pompeii was 1,000 degrees faranhigh.(Michael B.)
Mt. Visivus sat in silence for a long period of time. Untill, one day in 79 A.D., 2000 years ago, the people of Pompeii began to feel small tremors but thought nothing of it until the volcano burst and rained rock and ash down on the people, killing them and crushing their houses.Pain was spared and they were killed insintaneously.

Mt. Vesuvius erupted in 79 A.D. and completely destroyed the city of Pompeii. Lava and molten rock came hurtling down at 150 miles an hour. Over 100 million tons of rock and ash fell on Pompeii. -Trey A.
The eruption of Mt.Vesuvius was the most deadliest eruption of all.There was a dozen more eruptions after that.Naples is eight miles from Vesuvius.they say that Mt.Vesuvius is to erupt any time soon. (Nicholas H)
On August 24, 79 AD Mt.Vesuvius erupted on pompeii. Citizens suffered from toxic gas. The city of pompeii got covered in molten rock and ash. Years after in 1594 it was excavated.It is still being excavated today! People are expecting for it to erupt any day now.A near by city named Naples is just 8 miles away,if Mt.Vesuvius has another big eruption it could swallow Naples in 1 minute.Out of all this I have learned that Mt. Vesuvius ruined alot of lives!!
Maggie H.
On August 24th,94 A.D, Mnt.Vesuvius errupted and shot lava and ash into the atmosphere.During the 18 hours of destruction,rocks and volcanic ash rained down on the city. Most people ran to the nearby bay, but some people decied to take cover in their house,which in my opinion was the worst thing they could possibly do seeing that if rocks where being thrown from the sky don't you think it could come through your roof? About 5,000 people were killed by either carbon dioxide poisining or the lava covered and smothered them. Those are some of the intresting facts I have learned in Mrs.Vinson Langauage Arts class.
- Shealynn S.
In 79 a.d. Mount Vesuvius erupted pouring smoke,ash,and lava over Pompeii And Herculaneum.At first it was just pumice falling on roofs,eventually crushing them.There was three pyroclastic surges with only one pointing towards Herculaneum,with the others pointing towards Pompeii,these are what destroyed the city of Pompeii.
Kolby H.
Mt. Vesuvius erupted about 2,000 years ago in 79 AD.This eruption covered the city of Pompeii completly.Pompeii lay undesterbed for over 1,700 years.As scientist started exivating they discoverd more and more about Pompeii.now they they have a place were you can see Pompeii.
Zephanee .R.
I think this is a very tragic story but the people of Pompeii saw signs before it happened but they waited until it did and got buried in ash and preserved until almost 2,000 years later -Haley H.
Mt.Vesuvius was a composite volcano, which eruptes with great force. A nearby city,Herculeam and Pompeii, had had it hard. This volcano had erupted really bad 2,000 years ago. Alot of people died in this very rich city. -
-Elexus S.
The lava went down the volcano at 150 miles an hour.
The fire god of fire and volcanoes was the day before the volcano erupted. So the holiday kinda back fired. Huh?
Miranda T.B.
On the day of 79 a.d. over ten billion tons of rock were spewed out of the volcano raining on Pompeii and Herculaneum. Houses , people and many other every day things were found just where they were in 79 A.D. (Jacob S.
Mt.Vesuvius has had over a 100 more eruptions since the big one, but not as deadly. The lava and molten rock was speeding down Mt. Vesuvius up to a 100 miles per hour.Pompeii's citizens suffered from carbon dioxide.They stayed buried until 1584.Now they are still digging for things of Pompeii.The lava's and molten's rock tempature was over 100 degrees F. (Hannah S.)
pompeii was almost obliterrated. Every died and somone decided to put a city just eight miles away. After the huge avalanches of rock poisin gas. Oh well it was good while it lasted, not the eruption the city its self
(shane foster
this was crazy to me at first ,but was turned into somthing I will always try to study it.the first thing is that it only half erupted. it traveled 150 miles per hour.Jackie d. moreland
About 2,000 years ago in the summer of 79 A.D. the city of pompeii got completly covered in volcanic rock and ash.The cause of the horrible event is the fault of Mt.Vesuvisus. It shot up 10,000,000,000 tons of rock on the city of Pompeii.About 1,700 years later in 1594 the exivation began when a farmer found a cup in his pasture. The ash completly preserved everything perfectly.Now you can go to see pompeii in a measueam today.
Trey W.
Nearly 2000 years Mt.Vesuvius erupted. In 79 A.D. Mt.Vesuvius was about to release it's fury.Lava and molten rock rolled down the side of the volcano going 100 miles per hour. Roofs collapsed crushing the people inside of the buildings.In just 18hrs Mt.Vesuvius had spude out 10 billion tons of rock killing 5000 people. Vesuvius has had a lot eruptions since A.D. 79, but none has been this deadly.Naples is just 8 miles away from the volcano. Naples was a big city that didnt get covered from Vesuvius.which is very lucky.
-Savannah S-
Mt.Vesuvius erupted in 79 a.d and left Pompeii covered in ash.The people of Pompeii noticed shakes during the morning.Day turned to night when Mt.Vesuvius erupted.At night when ash fell on the roofs of the houses it collapsed and killed anyone inside.Mt.Vesuvius turned Pompeii into a time capsule from the eruption.There were more eruptions but not as big as this one.
-Madison M.
I think it is crazy people lived in Pompeii knowing there is a volcano there that can erupt any day.
Skylar W
Lava flowed 250 miles per hour down the side of Mt. Vesuvius leaving a huge gaping hole in Pompeii.
The lava flowed into the village of Herculaneum just a few miles away.
When Vesuvius erupted it trapped people inside their holmes and ruined many peoples lives
Scientist say thatthis can happen again and destroy everything in less than a minute.
Dustey R.
Pompeii is probably the unluckiest city. Mount Vesuvious destroyed pompeii with ash and rocks. It killed more than 5 thousand people.Vesuvious can swallow a metropolis in less than a minute.
(Walker N).
In 79ad Aug.24,in Pompeii Mt. Vesuvius erupted and killed more than 5000 people.In 18 hours ash had covered Pompeii completely. 17 years earlier Pompeii had an earthquake an it was destroyed but then they rebuilt it back.Rocks were shot out of Mt. Visuvius and the rocks were hot.Later after Pompeii was burried an construction worker was digging an hit somthing and it was Pompeii.then excavators stared uncovaring pompeii and now 2.6 million people tour pompeii every year.everybody that didn't make it were petrified.Petrified means to "turn into stone".
Adrian B.
Vesuvius covered everything in ash when it erupted. Seering hot ash,rock,poisonous gases,and many other things killed the citizens of Herculaneum.

Pompeii was covered in ash,10 tons of it.Most of the people in Pompeii were cast in ash ,that preserved for more than two thousand years. Herculaneum was incinerated within seconds. Matthew L.
The story began on one summer day in 79 A.D. A great amount of smoke and ash came spewing out of Mt. Vesuvius.The ash and rock came traveling down Mt. Vesuvius 150 miles an hour.The ash and lave destoyed everything and everyone in its path.After Mt. Vesuvius erupted other volcanos erupted in its path! After Mt. Vesuvius buried the city of Pompeii 1,500 years later these contruction men rediscoverd the city of Pompeii. Ever since they rediscovered it the scientist have been studing the city of Pompeii.The scientist now say its about to erupt again!!!
Macey F.
Well I believe that Mt.Vsuvius had the worst erruption in History.And 10 tons of ash covered it;and was
also perserved in it.
Carmen E.
Pompeii was shook in the early hours of the morning by Mount Vesuvius.Later on that afternoon was the end of life for pompeii and its neighbors.Mount Vesuvius blew covering pompeii and the citisens of it.Vesuvius also had a crack in it whitch caused a avalanche or surge covering the bay of Naples.There was another surge heading right for pompeii.the rocks in the surge stopped right in front of the city ,but the gas kept going sufficating most of the citisens.Roffs collapsed on Roffs collapsed on top of those traped in their houses.The city was covered with ash in just 18hours.the layed covered all the way to 1984.when a counstruction worker stumpled upon it.Scientist say it will blow again destroying naples.Is anyone safe around vesuvius anymore.
Dylan B.
People's roofs fell in on them and crushed them.The people mostly died of toxic gas geting into there lungs.The city of Napels is now near where Pompeii used to be.People think MT.Visuvius might erupt again and destroy the city of Napels in less than a minute.At any time the volcano could erupt but no one not even scientest know the exact time or even have a clue of when it might erupt all they know is it will probably be soon.
chris k.
AUG 24,79 AD mt.vesuvius let out a deadly piroclasti surge
a neiboring city could be destroyed in a matter of 60seconds.MT.vesuvius caused many earthquakes causing many houses to collapse sufacating many people.many people thought that when it erupted it looked like a tree. scientist say "that the bodies were preserved with ash people thought that the gods were upset vesuvius has a dozen eruptions but none as strong scientist expect another eruption around this time.
amadai,d
Pompeii was a big city and a valcno named Vesuvius eurtuped in 79 A.D. They think it will erupt again soon. There is a city 8 miles and it will be baried in ash. It wasn`t discoverded for 2,000 years.
Chris D.
In Vesuvius there is a large volcano that erupted 79 A.D. In 79 A.D ash started flowing to the sky and hot molten rock started falling from the sky. In Herculanium people were burried within seconds. The ash made people suffurcate because they were breathig in carbon-dioxide and hydro-clorich acid. When the volcano errupted people thought that the gods were mad. The eruption killed 5,000 people. Scientist says that the volcano should erupt any time now and everything and everyone who is in the way would be gone less than a minute. The eruption that happened in 79 A.D. was 150mph the surge killed everyone and everything that was in the way.
Ashton J.
MOUNT VESUVIUS was the most famous volcano in the world because of the eruption on august 24 79.It was spewing molten ash pumice and sulfice gas into the air. Tons of rock, ash and pumice covered POMPEII.The lava was moving at a rate of 150 miles per hour.the temperature was more than 5000 degrees farinheit.Within 18 hours the ash and pumice had burried POMPEII killin people all over POMPEII.when night came it had already killed over 5,000 people.Thecity of POMPEII was completely demolished.pompeii layed undisturbed beneath the heaps of ash and cinders for more than 1,500 years.In 1594 POMPEII was descovered and the people and houses were persured exactly like they were.POMPEII has had a dozen other eruptions but none were as deadly as the first.
(NIKKI G.)
In 79 AD there is a volcano that erupted named Mt. vesuvius. Vesuvius is the most famous volcano.When vesuvius erupted rocks and ash traveled down the mountain at 150 miles a hour. The people died because they were suficated by ash.Scientist say that vesuvius will erupt but don't know when.Ten billion tons of rock and ash fell on Pompeii.Roofs collapsed and killed the ones inside.Vesuvius has erupted 12 times and smuthered peoples lives.
(Breyanna K.)
I think that Mt. Vesuvius will erupt again sooner or later because it erupted by a cave in the volcano that collapsed.And when that happened it overflowed and made a lot more caves that filled up and made Mt. Vesuvius overfill and erupt with too much pumice and ash when they broke open.It could happen again by the lava melting open more caves and braking open and overfilling.
Eric W.
Mt.Vesuvius is a very huge volcano.It erupted in 79 A.D. Over 2,000 people died from this eruption. Mt.Vesuvius destoryed the whole city of Pompeii.When Mt.Vesuvius erupted huge molten rocks and lava were hurlting down the volcano up to 150 miles-per-hour.The whole city of Pompeii was covered with lava.all the people died from all the gases. When scientist came back a couple of years ago they found these people. When they found them they had nothing but lava all over them.But u could still tell that they were people. In my opion I think it is so crazy that people live in Mt.Vesuvius of Pompeii. Because people know that Mt.Vesuvius is going to erupt one day soon and that they know Mt.Vesuvius is a powerful volcano when it erupts. When Mt.Vesuvius erupts again if they try to run or try to get away the are going to get covered in ash. If I was one of the people of Pompeii and i knew that Mt.Vesuvius was going to erupt I would not live there just to see the volcano erupt. Scientist today are in Pompeii getting ready for another one to erupt.
Hannah Stephens
Mt.Vesuvius erputed in 79 A.D. the volcano was so powerful that it erupted on a city about 8 miles away.It killed about 20,000 people and it covered Pompeii with ash in less than 18 hours.When Mt. Vesuvius erputed it's tempature was 1000 degress.It's ash perserved the buildings and people exactly how they were in 79 A.D.The ash cooled and when it hit the ground people started to breath in it so it became hard to breath and the when it had a avalanch it droped some big rocks then those big rocks hit the people hurting them.Some of the people of Pompeii were scared to even come out of their houses so when the ash got heavy enough it trapped them in there houses so they were stuck then the ash broke the roofs then the pepole inside were crushed and died.Mt.Vesuvius has had many erputions since then and scientist say it might erupy again soon and they say if it does then it could cause more damange and cover Pompeii in less than a minute. Jay J.
HCMSPOMPEII2 People say that Mount Vesuvius is the most famous volcano ever.It all began in 79 AD.People were starting to notice something wierd about the mountain.Then, later that afternoon, it irruupted and covered most of a city.Ash and smoke starting raing from the sky and killing whoever didn't get out of the way.Then, there was apyrolastic surge going at 150 M.P.H. and was 1000 degrees ferinheight.Hurculianian was gone in seconds.It wa 100 feet of hot lava.As night came the ash began to fall, but not as hard as it was before.The next morning the volcano irrupted again and was directly for Pompeii.People started to suffer from ash.Finally the last blow. The city next to Pompeii, Naples, was only eight miles away.They are so lucky that it didn't hit them.Scientists say that has been covered for 2000 years and that if irrupts again lik the one in 79 AD then it can destroy the city of Naples.
Mount Vesuviss is a volcano that is active.It ereppted in 79 A.D.The town is about 7 miles from the volcano.When it errepted it killed more than 2,000 people and covered the city with lots of ash. It destroyed everything in its path including the city of Pompii.They say it is the strongest erreption in Pompii. Also when it errepted there was a huge hole in the volcano. There was an avalanch. People waited along shore hoping to get rescuded. People say it will errept very soon but they don't know when. It will take the city in less than 60 seconds.
Christian Murray
When Mt. vesuvius erupted in
79 A.D. the eroption killed more than 5,000 people. that was the biggest eroption in history. it spude out over 5,000 tons of gasses.the city thought it was the Gods. there was dozens of eroptions afture that but not as deadly.the scintes think it is sopose to erupt agian but this time it will cover the city in 60 seconds. the gasses and lava was 100,000 F. it was spuing out gasses and lava at 115 miles per. hour. it stayed barried for a wile afture. Mckensie C.
Have you ever wonder'd about Pompeii? Well i learned about it, Pompeii had a volcano they thought it was a mountain. But it was a volcano! It erupted in A.D 79. No one knew about it for 100 years, until a farmer found a golden cup and then they unbarryed the city of Pompeii. It could take out a city in 60 seconds! Thats crazy right?
Alexis S.
Pompeii erupted in 79 Admit had erupted many times before that but not as deadly. It is one of the most popular eruptions in history. When it erupted it shot out hot gas and molten lava. Pumus and ash covered the cities, it was at least 1 ft deep! When it erupted, it started an avalanch. Lava ran down the mountain at 1000 degrees and 50mpr. .It has been 18 hrs. Everything the cities, bodies, food, animals had been covered. And it stayed till 1594.A construction company were building something and they found the buried disaster!
-Maddie T.
I've learned that Pompeii is a city in Italy and that Mount. Vesuvius erupted in 79ad. They found over 1,000 people in the city of Pompeii. I've also learned that the whole entire city of Pompeii was covered in ash & pumice. Also more than 8,000 people live in the nearby city of Pompeii which is the Herculaneum & they think the volcano may erupt any day now. Scientists also believe if the volcanic eruption is even worse than Pompeii’s Eruption than they think it may be able to take it out within 60 seconds. If that hapends to the near by city it won't be good.

My Language class has learned about Mount. Vesuvius. It erupted in A. D. 79 in Italy. Researchers have found over 1,000 bodies buried in ash, they put plaster like mold around them to show what position they were in. About 100,000,000 tons of rock came crashing in. It basically rained ash, and rock. Pompeii ‘s citizens suffocated by the carbonation. It had about a dozen more eruptions, but none of them were as deadly. The neighboring city Naples could also be gone if it erupts that big one more time. by:Ally Harris
In ad 79 Mt, Vesuvis erupted and caover all of Pompeii and Hurculeseum. This eruption is none as the biggest eruption that has ever happend. When Mt. Vesuvis erupted it cover both towns in seconds. After that eruption there has been a dozen more but not near as daedly. Because the smoke was so black and covered the sky the day turnd form day to night instently. Also because of the dark the people couldn't see where they were going so it made it harded for them to escape. The people thoght that the mountian erupter because the Gods were mad. The lava had covered all of Pompeii with ash that was more than 1 foot deep. Hannah L.
In Italy they were a city named Pompeii, they were a volcano there too named mountain vensush.It erupted in ad79 and it made ashes and it smothering a lot of people and they died. [Over 5 billion people died] They found a lot of stuff under the ashes like houses and a lot of people and and they even found some dogs too! Today people think that the volcano going to erupt this year! [In 2010]
[CHELSEA]
In the year A.D.79 Mt.Vesuvius erupted and buried Pommpeii.They found about 1,000 bodies in houses and streets. It hit Herculaneum to.Herculanium was buried in a few seconds. A series of earthquakes happen after the explosen.Vesuvius has had more eruptions since but not strong enough to take down a city. In 18 hour Vesuvius shoot out a billion tons of rock!Ronald.T
It all began a normal summer day. In a.d.79 mount vusuvese erupted killing thousand’s? By being hit by rocks, smutherd, and other ways .When the ash first hit people were trapped in their homes then crushed from collapsed ceilings. After about 200 years they were finely discovered in 1594 Austin g
I've learned that Pompeii is a city in Italy and in the year A.D.79 the volcano Mt. Vesuvius erupted and destroyed the city of Pompeii.13 years earlier the city of Pompeii had a horrible earthquake and it destroyed the whole city.After the earthquake they were rebuilding the city and they decided that they were going to make it bigger and more beautiful than the time before.In the process of rebuildig the citizins were warned a week ahead that Mt.Vesuvius was going to erupt and they didn't leave. So when the volcano erupted it killed so many people died.it was so horrible what happened and if only they had listened they would not have died. Blog by:Chelsea Williams
In AD 79 Mount Vesuvius erupted on the city of Pompeii. Pompeii is a country in Italy. Maples is a nearby city. The city of Pompeii was buried in more than one foot of pumice and ash. The ash came purring out 150 miles per hour. Pumice and ash rained from the sky. People died from breathing the carbodioxide that was in the air. There has been many more eruptions but not this bad!! One more eruption and it can swallow the whole cutroplus. When it erupted in AD 79 it erupted twice in once. When it errupted the people of pompeii did not know what was happening. The people went to bays to try to get saved but they couldn't because the lava was to fast for them. some of the people were to scared to go any were so they stayed in their home but their homes got crushed and they died from the pressure and the heat coming from the roof. The ash that came out of the vocano was hotter than 1,000 dagrees. there was 10,000,000,000tons of ash. The city of Pompeii was buerried in ash untill 1592 because some people were digging and found the remains of people, homes, food, and jewlery.
by:Kimberly Scarborough
In AD79 Mt.Vesuvies erupted on the city of Pompeii in Itlay 2,000 years ago. Rock,ash,hot gas, and molten rock fell on the city. More than one foot of ash and pumes covered pompeii. People were crushed by rock but the bodies were not harmed, and thet also died from volcanic gases. Over millions of adults,kids, and babies were killed. Mt.Vesuvies took down anything and everything that was in it's path. In 1594 people found the city of Pompeii. There is a city called Maples beside Mt.vesuvies could be covered with lava in 60 seconds and can kill up to a million people. People say that Mt.Vesuvies is to be erupted any time now.
By:Julia E.
Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD 79.The city of Herculion was destroyed by a pyrotechnic flow before Pompeii.Pompeii wasn't buried till before its inhabitants was killed by carbon dioxide then it was covered by another pyrotechnic flow.The remains were found by a farmer then a construction site found the rest of it.Now the people of Naples are just eight miles away from mount Vesuvius and expecting another eruption,they just don't know when.
Zack M.
In A.D. 79 Mt. Vesuvius eruted and the people of Pompeii thought the gods was mad.On that day 5,000 people got killed.Naples was eight miles away from Mt. Vesuvius.It erupted alot more times since A.D 79.It stayed barried untill 59.And it was one have the most famous erupion.
Cody Y.
My reading class has been learning about Pompeii and Mt. Vesuvius. I learded that Mt. Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD. Before the eruption the people of Pompeii saw little trimbles though the day, then it happended. Mt. Vesuvius gave it all. During that day 100 million tons of ash fell. It was 1,000 degrees farinhight that day. In 18 hours 10 billion people had been burried. It was sadning. Rocks and stuff fell 150 miles an hour down hill into the city of Pompeii. In all 1,500 people died. Some got out. they were a mile deep in ash. this happened 2000 years ago. Its abut to happen again.
Caleebell
In A.D.79,Mount vesuvius erupted.
The ash had traped many people
inside their houses,and later killed by their houses falling in on them.The erption of Mount Vesuvius is one of the most rarest
volcanic eruptions of all time. Over 5,000 peoople were killed.in
Naples,more than 1,000 citizens live there,just eight miles away from Mount Vesuvius.Since A.D.79
Vesuvius had a dozen more erupyions,but not a single one of them was as bad.
Daniel M.
What I learned about Pomeii and Mt.Vasuvius is that it eroupted in AD79.The people of Pompeii thought Mt.Vasuvuis was a mountain!Mt.Vasuvuis was a big mountain that had erouted with a small erouption the it had eroupted with a big eruoptin because of a small whole had caced in and made the explosion worse!Pompeii is located in Italy.The story of the dog of Pompeii is:The dog's name was Bimbo and the little boy's naem was Tito and Tito was a blind little boy and Bimbo found Tito on at an orphanage and so ever since Bimbo found Tito they have lived together.When the erouption happened Tioto could feel the erouption happing!Bimbo went back to the bakery to get some cinimen bread.As Bimbo was on his way back he didnt make it on time.We discovered the erouption of Mt.Vasuvius by one day a farmer was digging and plaanting crops when he came across a golden cup, so he kept on digging and he found bodys.We are waiting for the erouption to happen again and when it will happen to see how much damage will be done to the whole State.They say if it happens again it could suck pompeii out of the system.When I heard about Pompeii I thought it was so sad to here that over 3,00,00 people died that day and night.Pompeii was covered in lava when the erouption came to Pompeii..In seconds Pompeii was covered with lava.Before the erouptions there was amn earthquik and so they where still cleaning up after that.The city of Pompeii was very wealthy and had lots of money!Thats somwe facts i know about Mt.Vasuvius And Pompeii!..
-Summer S.
In AD79 MT Vesuveus erupted.MT Vesuveus is located in Pompeii.When MT. Vrsuveus eropted in Pompeii it destroyed many of homes,it killed over 1 millon prople.Children,and any pets died.In the middle of the eruption,a big hole had formed in the side of the volcano,when the big hooole caved in it trigured somthing that caused a big avalaunch.After the avalaunch oxide rock and bolling lave was headed towards a nearbye city called Herculaneum,when the boiling lava hit the cite it was gone in seconds.Then it was heading towqards Pompeii, some of the people was just to scared and frighted to run.So as the boiling lava covered the city of Pompeii,it was covering humans,wildlife,homes,gold,silver,
ect.This city stayed covered up with ash for about 2000 years.And one day a man was plowing his garden and he found a golden cup,so he decided to keep digging,and he started to find bodie remains and more jewels.So he took the golen cup to a nearbye meusem.And the people at the meusem new that this was serius,but it wasnt until 2004 until they got the money to find the city of Pompeii.MEGAN
In 79 A.D Mt. Vesuvius erupted.It killed thosands of people.When Mt. Vesuvius it destroyed everthing in it path.The peole of Pompeii were sufficated by the carbine deocide.When Mt. Vesuvius erupted it sent out hot ash, toxic gas, and rocks.The mountian began to get a hole in the side of it cauling more rocks to come down the mountian crushing the things getting in its way. When the ash cool on the people it made a cast like thing over them.Then one day people came to bulid some kind of building and dicovered that there were poeple there.So they got archeologistto come and make these goast like cast to show people what they looked like after the ash covered them.Scinencetest today think that Mt. Vesuvius could take Naples away in 60 seconds(with another big eruption like this one).

In the year of AD79 Mount VESUVEUS covered Pompii witn billon tons of ash. The town was almost preserved from the ash that fell on top of it. It was on a summer afternoon when it happen. The town was already feeling movement. they thought the gods were mad. But to fine out the most famus ERUPTION WAS ABOUT TO HAPPEN.Mount vesuveus blsted and went to the town of Naples.the blast kilt many pepole.If it was to happen agian the town next to it could be gone in sixty seconds.

what i learned about mount Vesuvius eroupted that it hit the town of Herculania before it actualy hit Popeii.What happened was that the peploe of Pompeii were warned that mount Vesuvius was going to eroupt but they thought that it was not going to but when they had a seris of small tremors it was about to unleash its furry out on the pepol of the cities.the first thing that happened was that day turned to night ash and molten rock was high up and as it came down it turned into pumice.The weight of the pumice and ash was to much for the roofs to handle,and they came crashing in and killed all the pepole that was in those buildings.Before the lava hit that was 1,100 degrees the pepole of Pompeii were killed by the pumice, silt,and ash.When they found out that Popeii was under the rebuilt city of Pompeii consturction crews were building something and happened to stumble upon Popeii.

What I learned about Pompeii, is that lots of people died in the accident.Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD79.The citizens thought the gods were angry at them.It rained rock and ash.Roofs colapsed crushing those inside.Mount Vesuvius had a huge gaping hole in its side and when it clpsed another eruption just came.The other eruption happened and it was just as bad. This time it headed straight for Pomoeii.The giant rocks stopped but the huge cloud of gas kept on going.The people did'nt know what was going on at first.Mount Vesuvius had erupted a dozon times since then.One more eruption could swallow motropolas whole.
