Twice destroyed: study on the house in Pompeii
In the year 79, Vesuvius lava flow engulfed one of the most beautiful resort cities of Ancient Rome. Among the buried country estates, one of the most remarkable ones is the villa of Diana Arcaizante, discovered by Charles III in the XVIII century. Now, a group of researchers have managed to recreate its primitive beauty.
