The archaeological excavations of Pompeii have returned the remains of the ancient city of Pompeii , near the hill of Civita, at the gates of modern Pompeii , buried under a blanket of ashes and lapilli during the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 , together with Herculaneum , Stabiae and Oplontis.
The findings following the excavations , begun at the behest of Charles III of Bourbon , are one of the best testimonies of Roman life, as well as the best preserved city of that era. Most of the recovered finds (in addition to simple furnishings for daily use, including frescoes , mosaics and statues ) are kept in the National Archaeological Museum of Naples , and in small quantities also in the Antiquarium of Pompeii; just the considerable amount of finds was useful to understand the uses, the customs , theeating habits and the art of living over two millennia ago.
The site of Pompeii, in 2016, exceeded three million visitors, to be precise 3 209 089, making it the third most visited state museum site in Italy after the Pantheon and the archaeological circuit of the Colosseum , Roman Forum and Palatine Hill . In 1997 , to preserve their integrity, the ruins, managed by the Archaeological Park of Pompeii, together with those of Herculaneum and Oplontis , became part of the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites
