The forum at Pompeii was a grand meeting place for townsfolk, starting its life as a small market place. It developed over the years, that development probably being halted by a severe earthquake in 62 AD. This was followed in 79 AD by the catclysmic volcanic eruption of Mount Vesuvius, which resulted in a rapid pyroclastic flow that buried the town and preserved its ruins for nearly 2000 years. Mount Vesuvius is the larger of the two humps on the horizon. The smaller hump (on the right) is the edge of an even larger old volcano, Mount Somma, within whose crater Mount Vesuvius lies.
