Summary

We loved sharing our braincell so much we decided to do it again! It’s always “Pompeii this” and “Pompeii that”… but have you heard about Herculaneum? In this episode we learn about Mount Vesuvius and the 79AD eruption that covered the city of Herculaneum in thick layers of mud and ash and carbonized everything in its path, preserving the city in even more detail than PoMpEii. #JusticeForHerculaneum New episodes every other Wednesday!
