Skeletons of two new victims were found, during an excavation in the Insula dei Casti Amanti. They are the victims of an earthquake that accompanied the eruption, found under the collapse of a wall that occurred between the final phase of sedimentation of lapilli.

Modern excavation techniques help us to better understand the hell that in two days completely destroyed the city of Pompeii, killing many inhabitants. The scientific details of the excavation can be deepened through the articles published in the E-Journal of PompeII.
