The #ancient #Roman #city of #Pompeii at the Gulf of #Naples offers remarkably #wellpreserved #insights into #dailylife before it was buried by Mount #Vesuvius in 79 AD. G. Sürmelihindi et al. (2026) investigated the #carbonate #incrustations in the #baths, the #aqueduct, and in #wells, with the latter being replaced by the penultimate as #technical #improvement.
