So a long time ago in a town called Pompeii,Italy, it was peaceful! Customers ordered bread and many gladiators fought in the amphitheatres. Gladiators were slaves fighting for freedom. They fought to gain independence for themselves. But suddenly, since it was a burning hot, Mount Vesivus erupted! It was 79 AD that time.
So then, many villagers started to panic! They found valuable treasures like gold and jewels to keep. Even the gladiators ran. The shopkeepers and chefs dropped their food and ran. Many of the ashes fell of the citizens. Then too much ash covered them, and in less than only 2 days, the whole town were buried!
They lay hidden and dead for around 1,000 years, then in the 1800s, the king of Italy wanted to find out where Pompeii was hidden! So he chose his best archeologists. After a long time, they had buried up all the ashes and found the whole town buried! They saw rotten, stone buildings and many villagers lay flat.
Thank you for listening to this.
