Pompeii is a city frozen in time because of a cataclysmic volcanic eruption. Early in the afternoon of August 24, in the year 79 ace, the people of Pompeii were frightened by a loud, booming sound coming from the direction of Mount Vesuvius five miles away. Suddenly the sky became as dark as night, and a huge column of ash, cinders, and rock rose up from the rim of Vesuvius. Within 24 hours, more than 2,000 Pompeians were dead, buried in the volcanic eruption that followed.
