Italy reopened its famous Antiquarium this week. The museum was created to keep and show objects from the ancient city of Pompeii. Life in Pompeii ended almost 2,000 years ago, after a massive burst of the nearby Mount Vesuvius volcano. The city was quickly buried by ash and lava. Many people were immediately killed. In fact, scientists found some human remains had turned to glass because the heat from the explosion was so intense. For many years now, specially trained scientists called archaeologists have been digging in the area that was once Pompeii. It is now an archeological park.
