Inside the Tombs - Pompeii Part 2 🇮🇹

- The necropolis is set on the sides of a road that runs parallel with the city walls. There are several burial monuments that exemplify the most popular models at the beginning of the 1st century BC, the period when the necropolis began to be visited, and 79 AD. These include the tomb of Eumachia, the priestess who financed the construction of a large building in the Forum dedicated to Augustan Concord and Piety. Here, inside an enclosure, there is the high basis over which a semi-circular (exedra) opens up, inside of which the burial chamber is found.
Two tombs are seen on the sides of the tomb of Eumachia, with a basis surmounted by an aedicula that hosts the statues of the deceased. However, the simplicity distinguishes the enclosed tombs in which the ashes of the deceased deposited in the urns are placed in earthen pits or in the base of the monument. The poorer tombs are evidenced by the presence of rough stone busts called "columelle". The cippus of Titus Suedius Clemens, the magistrate who was sent by Emperor Vespasian to rectify the unauthorised constructions in the city after the earthquake of 62 AD, can be seen from near the centre of the intersection of the road that goes from Nocera gate and the path along which the Necropolis is found.
Date of excavation: 1954-1956; 1996-1997. #cemetery #pompeii #naples
The significance of this tradegy is palpable as you walk amongst these poor victims of such an ungodly natural disaster. To know it encompassed an entire city and more for miles beyond, it is hard to wrap one's head around it. You have given me a gift, I can never repay. It is difficult to observe, yet one cannot help but pray for the souls of all the deceased. May they rest in everlasting peace.
Those poor people,how terrified they must have been.
Lovely tour, Thankyou.
These Pompeii videos are amazing! Thank you for documenting this trip for us. Pompeii has been on my bucket list since childhood, and this makes me feel as if I am there exploring along with you.❤
How humbling to see these pictures. The frailty of man against nature's insurmountable events. Absolutely haunting.
Thank you for taking us along to these amazing places.
Thank you so much for the donation especially as you work for hard. X
I went to Pompeii back in 1984 when I was in the U.S. navy. So much has been excavated since then. Would love to see it again one day.
Thank you Dan for an amazing video. It is surprising to see the burial customs haven't change that much in so many years. We still have mausoleums with families buried together, individual Small tombs with their ID stones. Very beautiful.
Dan, thank you so much for these wonderful videos.,and I can't afford to go to Pompeii, that is wonderful to be able to be able to be there without having to pay the price. Thanks again.
Noticed most of the bodies were facing the same way and some looked like they were trying to shield another person. Sad but I’m amazed at the same time.Thank you for filming. You showed us more than history books. Very lush and green there. Looks to be taken care of !
Watched part 1 and 2, totally amazing! Thank you so much. My prayers are with Italy right now, specifically the Campagna region, hoping that the Campi Flegrei volcano situation doesn't escalate.
Absolutely stunning grave yard. The statues are phenomenal. My Granda's nickname was Pompeii and its on his headstone. He got called into WW2 when he was 18 and i believe he was from Portsmouth. Cracking place Dan,thanks 👌🏻
Those casts of people at the end are so profound and moving ❤❤
Another fantastic documentary. The film at the end is so inspirational. I have my glass of wine and am mesmerized while watching. Thank you. Keep these videos coming.
Glad you enjoyed it! X
Dan ty for the first video. I love your education and explanation of things. I'm really looking forward to this one!!!....................anticipation is making me wait :)
Wow. Incredible. 20 B.C. Seems almost impossible they would still look like that. I guess because the statues were covered. Incredible. History before your eyes.
wow,,, Thank you so much for the wonderful 2 part Pompei trip, It was phenomenal,,
So very interesting and beautiful. I actually loved hearing the kids, I was thinking if they were on a field trip our school field trips sucked compared to this lol and I always love hearing the birds! Thank you 🙏
Good video. Have you considered the local war cemeteries? My grandfather's buried just outside Naples and although I haven't been there for 40+ years I remember it being a lovely peaceful place.
Thank you for a second fascinating video the end shots were so sobering and the music fitted perfectly 😊
Thanks!
And thank you 🙏 x
Oh my exquisite ending
Fascinating as always Dan. Many thanks for the tour.
Amazing...so pleased. Even some statues have heads for a change. Really beautiful there. Thank you again, so much for this different look at Pompeii❤

No I didn't get the notification until now..but get video ty
Thank you so much, loved your video, keep up your great work...
thanks Dan
Looking forward to seeing your video!
me too, really enjoyed part one
I can’t wait I really enjoyed the first part!!❤👍🏼
I see your pt 1, I would love to visit there someday.
Awesome location! Good job…
Very Enjoyable seeing these ancient burial sites of over 2000 years ago featuring higher up people of the Roman times. Also, I find it fascinating that the Roman Empire spread all the way to Britain as well as shown here.
Muchas gracias por este video. Te deseo muchas cosas buena para tu vida, salud y prosperidad. Gracias. Greeting from Argentina.
I've just discovered your lovely channel.Thanks for posting.
Fascinating and lovely location. Thank you so much for this.
We didn't see these when my friend and I went to Pompeii (but then we did get roped into a guided tour to see just a few of the popular sites - the brothel, some of penises that were carved everywhere, the Beware of the Dog house, etc) but I'd love to go back and see some of the things we missed, the Necropolis amongst them. The plaster casts of the bodies are so poignant aren't they? And I think it's amazing how much new stuff is being uncovered seemingly almost on a daily basis. Did you get to see the bodies at Herculaneum on this trip?
Super interesting, an amazing place - thank you!
I live a train ride from Pompeii. I think itsy a life changing experience.
Excellent tour thankyou 👍
That was excellent, thank you!
Love the bird song at the beginning
My goodness, the ending! Poor souls.
Thank you so much. Really moving.
Hello from Texas! I loved this video both parts, so very interesting! Thank you so much! I think it would be a very good place to do that a paranormal investigation don't you? ❤️
I can’t believe how late these excavations occurred
I know a lot about the other places you toured but very little of this one
Those last shots were very sad, poor people, victims of natures fury
Amazing stuff
Amazing place...
I am late but catching replay
Hope my notification is on YOU TUBE ,you are being naughty not alerting me ,😵💫
These are just huge tombs
So cool!
Dan, you must write the theme tune, sing the theme tune.😁👍
Really cool
Astounding.
Statues impressive
Amazing video and place! I'm curious would the families have built the tombs themselves or paid for someone to build them?? Did the families have to pay to have them built or did the city pay??
Did you visit Herculaneum??
Its sad how that happend to them❤🕊🌹❤
🎉🎉🎉🎉 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Are they real people at the end who got caught in the fire
Nem lehetne minden ország nyelvére lefoditva felrakni? 🤔
BC please, not BCE.
Why would you stand up on a wall that is clearly crumbling to take a look over the edge. True enough that was what it was meant for many hundreds of years ago but not in 2024.
