So, the coins were found in the remains of a ship wreck? or buried in ground that later became under water? I'm confused.

I too would like to see this. Hope you are able to do so soon and give us a trip report with photos.

Wow.

Very fun and informative.

Very interesting.

I also hope the exhibit travels closer to home. I forget what year it was, but I went to New York City alone to see the Pompeii exhibit at the Met (?). Geeze, it's been so long ago I actually forget. Drove my broken down Chevy to the Cleveland Airport, my mom was worried to death about me (only found out about that years later). I do remember that at the last moment there were some pieces of the exhibit that were not allowed to come to NYC.

ha.

Now that would be addictive. Ok, I want to know why these coins are being found in this field? Was it once a trading center? A village, battlefield? Why different eras?

Pretty sure this is the five hour walking tour I sat and watched...well, for five hours. Ate my dinner on a tray in front of the computer. Altho, it seems like it was 2019, not 2020. Either way, I found it very enjoyable because I'll never get there in person. Guy, sorry about your foot!

This is great. Will have to bookmark and watch the rest later. Thanks for posting this. I thought it was very well done, but captions would have helped a lot.

This is remarkable. Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.

I enjoyed it, thanks.

Isn't there a famous mural that has in within it a depiction of a man tied to a pole and a lion biting (or about to bite) his face? It always gave me the shudders. Imagine the horror of the moment.

Bookmarked for later, thanks for sharing.

Wonderful.

You find the most interesting topics!

Tombs were built with a left hand turn for a male. Tut's tomb has a right hand turn Never heard of this before, interesting. Thanks.

I binged watched The Supersizers videos one year. I remember the Roman one. Hilarious. Love Sue Perkins.

I don't quite understand. Was the stone part of a wall or did it stand alone at the edge of the city?

I've always believed this to be true.

Oh how interesting. I wonder if the exhibit will tour beyond San Francisco, like the Cleveland Museum in Cleveland Ohio perhaps?? Wishful thinking. Thanks for sharing. I've never seen the passing out of bread fresco online anywhere before.

Too late for me. My teeth, what I have left, are nothing to brag about. : ) Altho a change in diet wouldn't hurt at all, mainly sugars. ugh.

I would very much like to visit this site. I bet the museum contains wonderful items. One of the sub articles listed mentioned a "furry dog" remains. That was incredible to read and see the photo of the patch of fur.

I enjoyed that VERY much. In addition to the closed captions, click on "full screen" to really put yourself in the bicycle seat! Just imagine those stones of the road surviving to this day. I do wonder about what looks like piles of rubble/brick every so often - were they also tombs and monuments? And I'm assuming urns with ashes were deposited inside the walls?? I feel the Prowalk tours are well done. I repeat myself, but I spent four or five hours in Pompeii via a Prowalk tour and also was it six hours touring the city of Rome? ha I remember I had my supper on a tray in front of the computer during that one. Thank you for sharing this. The Sicily and Positano Evening Walk tours also look enticing.
