Up to a quarter of the ancient city Pompeii still remains unexcavated, but preservation may be the focus of future archaeological efforts: on.natgeo.com/3Qs5vrM

The bathing system can be also found in Viminacium!

I was in Pompeji alredy 4 times and always found something I didnt see before. Only with the Emidiate Eruption of Phelegrian Fields or Vesuviuse I stoped travling to Neaples. Or Messine were our last Location of our Hotel was.

Someone dropped that hairpin only to be picked up by someone 50 generations later. History is amazing

[@joserizal9845]

What’s amazing is how much speculation will come out of that 1 hairpin on what kind of person used to own it and his entire family

[@RealPhoenixRising]

@@joserizal9845 Yes! Was it a slaves final piece of pride or was it some rich womans one of many or even a childs plaything. Saddest thing is we'll truly never know but so many ideas will definitely come out of this one small piece of history.

[@nychris2258]

More like 80 generations

[@barbarav4046]

​@nychris2258 To think it was 2000 yrs ago... amazing... but I feel sorry for the people who died there

[@nychris2258]

@@barbarav4046 Yes but if they didnt die in such a horrible way their ruins wouldnt be so well preserved for the benefit of history. In a way they are ambassadors from their time to ours.

Yeah it has, they haven't always been given the correct info which isn't their fault but sometimes they haven't followed up with certain uncorrect info either. Other than that, I still enjoy what they put out!

@@Allannah_Of_Romethey’re Nat Geo. Not getting the correct information is absolutely their fault lol There’s no reason a company with the resources of National Geographic can’t use multiple sources to ensure the information they’re relaying is accurate. At least they’re not a pathetic and embarrassing as History Channel, bc they’ve COMPLETELY sold out for lowbrow fictional pseudoscience in lieu of anything providing actual education or insight.

[@bunjijumper5345]

I am the world's biggest loser, but, in my 30's I was able to see parts of Italy. I will be forever grateful that I have the memories of seeing Pompeii, Rome and Venice. Anyone who loves history should move heaven and earth to see Italy themselves, it is the greatest place on this planet, and I am so fortunate that my dream came to fruition.

[@intellectsunlimited]

Thank you....I'm making it a priority for 2024!

[@user-rr5mq4em5w]

For u of course, others have theirs...

[@superkoopatrooper4879]

Ehh Lisbon, Portugal is like 500-1000 years older than Rome and has been in continuous use since ancient Carthage.

[@maingame2136]

yes i agree. i came to rome, milan, bologna, genova, pisa n venezia in 2012. I think I must come back to italy to visit pompei

[@PrincessofthePrincesses]

lucky im too broke to travel

[@ivannovotny4552]

Absolutely fascinating and thank you for sharing.

[@ZhangLee.]

it really amazing to watch the city so " intact " after everything happen

[@Pedone_Rosso]

Walking the streets of excavated Pompeii is time traveling. Thanks for your videos!

[@stephanieann622]

Wouldn’t it be something to be there in person? I have always been fascinated by Pompeii.

[@Pedone_Rosso]

@@stephanieann622 I'm Italian, I've been used since childhood to seeing ruins and centuries/millennia old buildings everywhere, so I thought nothing about Pompeii. Until I actually went there for a field trip in high school. Pompeii is different from the rest of Italy. It actually feels like time traveling. You can imagine the tourists walking around you today, when you're in Pompeii, are actually tourists from a couple of thousands years ago. The only thing changing is their clothes: the city was a huge port at the center of the world. It has always been full of people talking foreign languages and following footsteps carved in the walking pathways towards the nearest barroom. I recommend visiting there to everybody.

[@stephanieann622]

@@Pedone_Rosso I’m even more anxious to go now! You really make it sound amazing. I never married so I haven’t traveled much at all. I’m sure I could find someone that would go with me🤣. I can’t put my finger on what fascinates me about it but I have been forever. I appreciate your helpful comment and I hope you have a great week😊omg I forgot to tell you that I am half Italian. My family is mostly full blooded Italians. My Grandpa had a very successful restaurant business here in Iowa for 65 years until he passed away. I wish I could cook good Italian food but I don’t have the patience 🤣🤣

[@edaun622]

Love watching anything about Pompeii, so fascinating! 💯

[@christinakirby8081]

Love these documentations on past ancient lives. Have to say this is one of the best and interesting finds I've watched. I'll continue watching Thank you

[@littleagyi1462]

Thz a lot all of you for this entire video

[@karenroot450]

This is a great excavation to help understand their way of life! I’m quite sure more rooms, houses, and perhaps animal stables will be found. Are the relics eventually going into a museum? Are any skeletons going to re-buried? Lots of information to learn

[@ericsvendsen1880]

I understand sharing with the world for historical purposes, but some are just "ordinary" people. Like the case of this guy, they should scan and get as much digital record of him as possible, take dna sample, and put him back. I watched a documentary recently where they found a revolutionary war burial site in a forest and they basically did just that. Learned what they could and then buried them properly and even threw a parade for the lost soldiers. I guess it's a matter of deciding what should be kept out and what's to be put back.

[@EmbraceTheJourney]

thank you so much for this presentation. Amazing historical finds

[@Thatsinteresting363]

How awesome! But I couldn’t breathe watching the guys in the tunnel.

[@scariestfloodmomentsofalltime]

Pourquoi avaient-ils construit leur cité en bas d'un volcan alors qu'ils savaient pertinemment que c'était dangereux. En tout cas on ne peut qu'admirer ce travail des archéologues, c'est vraiment impressionnant.

[@barbarav4046]

They didn't know it was a volcano but believed it was a mountain

[@RDMusic504]

Great content, always amaze me.

[@KarlaLuna-tv4tm]

Excelente video , thanks Nat Geo Channel ❤🙏

[@belovedchaos1]

The testudo could have also kept the water sanitized by boiling off pathogens. Very cool!!

[@nycbearff]

It did not boil - the cooler water from bathing pool flowed through the bottom of the opening, was heated, and flowed back from the top of the opening, it was a convection system. So the water never got too hot to bathe in.

[@deemushroomguy]

I'm curious as to how prevalent legionnaire's disease was in the ancient world... Constantly warm/moist environments seem like a hotbed for it.

[@agnesianagnesian5576]

Lucky for me to have A book about Pompeii. So, when I'm watching this video, it's like files compiling between my LTM & archeologist evidents served in this video. Interesting & beautiful ✨️

[@oakleafwellness]

Good documentary. I must admit though, I had to fast forward when they were crawling around the tunnels underground that hurt my claustrophobia 😂

[@Obiter3]

Excellent

[@aundrapalmer517]

Amazing!!

[@ItsMe-yv9jd]

I was struck by how narrow all of the streets are... where did everyone park their horses and carts when stopping to eat and sleep, visiting a store or delivering goods to stores, (while the streets were constantly crowded with people that were also riding on horses, pulling carts and walking through those same streets?)

[@sue-o8245]

Someone grew up in the culture of personal mobility... Few people had or needed a horse or cart and as much as possible their bulk and uh waste was confined to an alley, a mews, stables, large thoroughfares. Streets are for people, as Europeans and a few US cities are relearning today.

[@rocioaguilera3555]

The Pompeii tragedy's a window to the past.

[@pippilongstocking.]

I went here on a sixth grade field trip.When my Dad got stationed in Germany..And back then you could walk all over the place..and go into areas that are fenced off nowadays.

[@TC-tw5zk]

When was that?

@@TC-tw5zk such a long time ago,,maybe 1981 ,. Zweinrucken high school Germany..

[@Tttxxxj]

I can’t stop watching videos about Ancient Rome.

[@zmac8689]

There is no doubt, that the Romans were so ahead of their times, with engineering and building construction.

[@P.Galore]

I think after 10 minutes crawling through the underground baths I'd have a panic attack.

[@AEOH3X]

I like how she just casually jokes about them surviving in there, which is probably a legit concern lol 0:27

[@marciethomas5766]

In 2005, I walked the streets of Pompeii.,at 2:29, we asked what these were and answered steam tables to keep food hot.

[@llyrpf]

we went to Pompeii 3 days ago, haven't completed seeing all the regions and missed the Map in Region VII. I believe, we were there for about 4 hours. I would love to go back with a tour guide to better appreciate the story behind those frescoes and everything.

[@Waltaere]

When i was young there are century old bridges in our province and i remember hearing from old folks that those old bridges comemorate with child heads burried at both sides of the bridge to make that bridge strong and wont take lives but i didnt know its a form of child sacrifice the spanish bring here in philippines that is unacceptable even for the poor uneducated filipinos at that time.

[@chells88]

I loved seeing all this but.... climbing into the heating tunnels for the bathing pools..... nope! what if they get stuck cause they can't turn around? that's a big nope for me. I give them credit! by them doing that we get to see what it was like in Pompei.

[@jonbates5873]

I want to know where the circus was You can kind of see an area on Google Earth that would fit outside of the city walls. There has to be one somewhere That was everything to them

[@labibbidabibbadum]

Astounding video. Gotta say though, the archeologist should grow a pair and crawl down the hole. I don't recall Indiana Jones calling in some spieliologists every time there was a bit of a tight passage...
