pompeii

The beach at Herculaneum is believed to be where some 300 people died while waiting for boats to save them from the volcanic eruption in 79 AD. It's now open to the public for the first time.

For the first time, a food stall has been excavated in its entirety in the city. The stall had remnants of 2,000-year-old food — giving researchers a glimpse into Pompeii street food.
