Description

"In AD 79, the volcano Vesuvius erupted, burying the towns of Pompeii and Herculaneum under ash and rock, and leaving them remarkably well preserved for centuries. While Pompeii has been extensively written about and popularized, the remains of Herculaneum are less widely known, but they have yielded spectacular archaeological evidence. This is the first major study of Herculaneum since that of Joseph Jay Deiss, published in 1966 and last revised in 1993. ... Andrew Wallace-Hadrill revisits the evidence to unpick what is known from the speculation and fanciful invention, building a far richer impression of the town: its population, its public and private spaces and its place in the Roman world. He points up the similarities and differences between Herculaneum and its more famous neighbour, decodes the confusing mix of different types of people apparently living closely along side each other, examines the extensive documentary evidence and tackles head-on the complexities of excavating, preserving, restoring and presenting this priceless archaeological resource."--Jacket.
