Pompeii, the #1 location I want to visit sometime soon in my life.
Finally, an docu about Pompeii that doesn’t focus on the disaster.
You must and to Herculaneum - but if you go you have to go to the museum in Naples where most of the portable artefacts from Pompeii are housed - you could spend days there there is so much to see
Got the chance to visit during a Med cruise in 2019! Fabulous place to see and such a tragic end.
Number 2 my friend. You really must see Herculaneum, destroyed along side Pompei on 79ad. Herculaneum is better preserved as it was covered by pyroclastic materials.
As folk are saying, do Herculaneum too. And Pompeii will take a whole day. Don’t book anything else that day.
Go with a small group and a professional guide. It’s difficult to hear all the details even if they give you an earpiece if you are with a large group. Wear capable shoes like hiking style and bring a good camera. You won’t regret it.
Watching this days before I go!
I'm grateful for the depth of research you put into your videos. It really shows!
My time in Pompeii was too short. I never saw anything like this. The theaters weren't available. Never take a tour to a place like this. You need all day to see Pompeii and another to see the museums in Naples, not to mention Herculaneum.
This was great, thanks!
Loving these historical CZcams vids.
Absolutely fascinating.
Fascinating... Can never get enough about Pompeii... On my must do list.
Great vodeo! When I was there, my Roman friend and I wandered around and found pine nuts dropped from a tree and ate them.
Walking the streets and entering a home's atrium felt familiar seeing the casts of people and seeing the cast of dog still tethered at the time of death literally going back in time The guide Sergio asked if I would walk with him so Surreal
This is such a beautiful documentary
One of my dreams is to visit pompeii
Love this Chanel
I've always thought of Roman architecture as just marble and solid white concrete. I never realized how much red brick they used. Pretty crazy how similar their red brick work looks like today's brick.
The wine from Gaza came from further away & thus was probably more expensive. Which would explain the single amphora. Yes they may have sold more of the other stuff but that was probably also price related. We know from later European records that wine tradition had been kept relatively the same since the romans up to the middle ages & renaissance.
I dont understand why the call it gaza because the gaza strip started in 1948 when Israël officialy became a state.
Just say Middle Ages. "The Renaissance" is mostly myth and there were many 'renaissances' in the Middle Ages.
Aren't those portraits in the thumbnail from Egypt? very deceptive.
The Julia Felix portrait seems to be fake.
close ties between egypt and rome
It isn't "thermopolium", it is "caupona":))
The Romans didn’t have a word for volcano
look at naples for your answer
Basically they were a bunch of winos
Artificial intelligence, in constructing images related to Pompeii, would do well not to use those of Fayyum, which is in Egypt, while Pompeii is in Italy.
The people depicted in those portraits are from Roman times, but they belong to Egyptian families of mixed Egyptian-Greek ethnicity.
Although Americans like to think otherwise, the majority of Pompeii's inhabitants were not African, but European.
I knew something was suspicious about the Julia Felix portrait. All the frescoes depict images of lighter skinned Europeans, while Julia's "portrait" was more exotic looking. At first I assumed that she may have been mixed or may have simply had more Mediterranean features, but after looking her up (just out of general interest -not to see what she looked like) I soon realized there is no portrait of her that's survived. So, the portrait they used was fake and I dare say deceptive.
"Although Americans like to think otherwise, "
I'm American and don't know anyone who thinks Pompeii's inhabitants were "African," except maybe Afro-centrists.
@@themaskedman221 which are quite numerous...
@@giorgiodifrancesco4590 Maybe, but not relative to the general population of the US.
@@themaskedman221 It remains a mistake that no one in Europe makes
@@giorgiodifrancesco4590we wuz kangz
This figure is of Roman Egypt, not Pompeii...
I came here to see if anyone noticed that. Hard to trust a documentary that makes a big mistake like that. It’s a famous portrait.
@@TLhky98 I noticed it. I was suspicious when I saw it but realized it was not authentic when I searched up Julia Felix. The fact that her Wiki page has no image of her is a pretty good indication there are no surviving portraits.
Gaza! 🤯

Please turn background music off 📴
I can always hear them talking just fine even with the music.
I Think Julia Felix Is Not Pure Pompeian At All Maybe She's A Half Blooded Pompei Felix Surename Is Not Pompei Or Italian Descendants At All It's More Like English
Felix is Latin for “lucky” and was a well-established name in Ancient Rome.
@@doubleemmartin1 so you mean she's have half Latin descends cuz she have Latin surname at all
@@JoshuaMarvillaRalisay-mx2xb …Latin was the main language of Ancient Rome, and the ancestral language of modern Italian. So yes, she would have spoken Latin. There is no evidence she was “half” anything - she had a common Roman surname for Ancient Rome, based on the Latin language, which they spoke.
So you're totally clueless to the fact that you're using the Latin alphabet and that a significant number of English words derive from Latin. And lol @ "English surname" -there were no "surnames" in England back then.
Oh gee the narrator sitting on his moral high ground, as if we are soo differant to those of the past. And then the so called "gladiator baracks" that as of newest reseach are more of a market and have zero to do with the gladiators only that the square is near the amphitheater.
It all bs and you know it !
what exactly do you think this was then? some elaborate ploy for tourism??
1st of all... Those are so called Estruscans/Mayans in the thumbnail/mosiac/murals, Now what you all got to say? Who built these so called ancient ruins of "Pompeii".
The Mayans and the Estruscans are two different people who lived on two different continents and had different cultures.
@@tascharahernandez5867 The ignorance on this page is astounding.
@@themaskedman221 Yeah, it kinda seem like one of those pseudo-science pages.
The childrens graffiti was cool. Just like WWE....with death. People were much better off mentally 2000 years ago. Children were tought at a young age that the world is a vicious place...deal with it.
Talk about romantisizing, let's not forget this was the first reich.
The kingdom of egypt is much much older. So,not the first
Um what?
Latin lovers still longing of the roman empire and making up story's .😮😂
Waant falernian wine grown on the slopes of vesuvius?
