A there was in that moment, 79 AD was really, I can say, the place to be, but was really an important, important our little but important town. Inside the cast are the skeletons of these people. So these are just a human being of debt population living 2,000 years ago.

So the body stayed just complete for 30, 40 years, and as slowly the soft issues disappeared, but the ash bed made the kind of negative cast around the bodies. So, in the eighties, when Euralia had the very clever idea to put just plaster in the old cavities, it could have done plaster casts. The analysis with living with acetic acid gave us a lot of data.

For example, we can see how they used to eat. In the teeth of the victims, you can see, for example, you can read the biography of the victim, so how they ate and so how, if they were, they belonged to the elite of the other side or if they were just slaves. We have a laboratory where we show all the fruit, bread, all the material, carburized organic material, carbon available.

And so we can see really how they used to live in their daily life in the day of the 980, besides being buried by the 79 AD eruption of Vesuvius. Very important to us because they are a unique example of the sudden catastrophic buried suddenly entire cities, towns, people, objects, everything.

So actually, the people from Pave, the people from a clan, are just kind of living section of the population because mostly anthropologists and archaeologists study diet people from cemeteries. But in this case, these people were just like so they were living, a living population. This is very important to understand how they were living, the health of these people, illness, and everything, also about life but also death.

At the moment, we are trying to understand in detail how the people died in Pompeii. And in Curie, we know because we have studied in detail that people died due to the very high temperature, but we don't know exactly the mechanism, which is very important because Vesuvius is a very dangerous volcano, an active volcano, explosive volcano.

So all this kind of data about how the people died 2,000 years ago, but even 4,000 years ago, it was a very large eruption of Vesuvius. It's very important for civil protection, for future prevention of future eruptions.

At Missouri's laughing and my ad janazah.
