New #review today: "Typically of the late 70s, #Vesuvius incorporated elements of #ProgressiveRock, #psychedelia, and hard rock. And of course with the flute, you may be thinking of Ian Anderson and Jethro Tull, but that would not help you appreciate their music." #ExposeOnline #PsychedelicRock http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/vesuvius-twisted-tales-from-warped-minds-6.html

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. The periodicity of #δ13C variations from wells and republican #pools indicated poor #hygienicconditions.
