+Herculaneum was an ancient Roman town, buried by the devastating eruption of [Mount Vesuvius](/wiki/mount_vesuvius) in 79 AD. Unlike its larger neighbor, [Pompeii](/wiki/pompeii), it was engulfed by a rapid pyroclastic flow, perfectly preserving organic materials. Today, its excavated ruins offer a poignant window into life in the [Roman Empire](/wiki/roman_empire).
