Skeletons in the Boat House, Herculaneum #109620091
Description
Skeletal remains of Herculaneum inhabitants, trying to escape pyroclastic surge of the 79 AD eruption. Unlike Pompeii, the volcanic material which covered the more affluent Herculaneum preserved wooden and other organic-based objects such as roofs, doors, and foods. Now a UNESCO heritage site, around 75% of the town is still buried.
