guy Posted Sunday at 07:12 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 07:12 PM The have been previous posts about the earthquake that devastated Pompeii in AD 62, before Pompeii’s final destruction from Vesuvius in AD 79. The post below discusses the stolen marble (pictured above) from Pompeii in 1975 that had found in a Belgian house in 2023. It had been placed in the basement wall as a decoration and it depicts the earthquake of AD 62. Below is a good review video about that earthquake by Darius Arya.

guidoLaMoto Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago (edited) In Pliny Minor's famous letter to Tacitus describing the 79 AD eruption of Vesuvius, he states that the ground at Misenum where he was living at the time, across the bay from Pompeii, was heaving more than usual during the few days before the eruption, but because that heaving was so common there, nobody paid any attention to it. https://www.gutenberg.org/files/2811/2811-h/2811-h.htm#link2H_4_0065. Letter LXV This ground heaving is still a problem today around the Bay of Naples, and has recently become more active. https://freeastroscience.com/sleeping-giant-awakens-why-naples/ Edited 1 hour ago by guidoLaMoto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
