Herculaneum was an ancient roman colony, buried under the same eruption of Mount Vesuvius that damaged Pompei in 79 A. D.
The archeological area is not completely escavated, but in its small dimensions it's rich in historical heritage and unique archeological findings.
Objects from the past like food, clothes, bones and wooden furniture are in a perfect state of conservation here, thanks to the particular kind of volcanic material that became stratified on the area.
The guide will show you the ancient beach, the skeletons, the houses, the villas, the shops, the bath houses, the gardens and much more to discover the ancient Romans' daily life.
