Tranio And Livia's 'Escape From Pompeii'

In fact, the entire city seems to have vanished. Pompeii is buried under 12 feet of rock. Within a few decades, Pompeii is all but forgotten, wiped off the face of the Earth.

Instead of leaving Pompeii to dissolve into history, educational researchers such as National Geographic have continued conducting studies about the fall of Pompeii, because forgetting about the historical event would be detrimental to further knowledge on Roman culture in Italy. Life under Mount Vesuvius was full of promise and prosperity for the newly settled Greeks in the 8th century B.C. The vast area around the towering volcano attracted lots of people seeking a paradise-like land for their vacation needs. Along with Pompeii’s paradise attraction, the rich volcanic soil gave way to agricultural growth for the Greek settlers. Mount Vesuvius's overhang gave the settlers a sense of protection and security. Once early settlement gave way and the very basic foundations of civilization began to grow, Greek colonies soon established themselves in Campania along with the Etruscans.

As I walked onto our Amsterdam bound plane in PDX, I couldn’t help but think about what I would have the privilege of seeing. In the next week and a half, I would visit the Acropolis in Athens, Epidaurus- the first amphitheater and major healing center, Ancient Olympia- the sight of the first ever Olympics, Pompeii and the world-famous Roman Coliseum. I’ve been many to many places: Hawaii, New York, Boston, Washington D.C, and Honduras, but I’d never been as excited to travel somewhere as I was then. Without the inspiration of some of the places I would be visiting, our world would be very different than the world we know. We might not have track races, theater programs, sporting stadiums or many other fixtures of life.

The city was mostly destroyed and buried under a deep layer of volcanic ash in the aftermath of the eruption.

However, their whining quickly faded after they were bombarded with plates of breakfast foods. After stuffing themselves full of finger foods, they were unaware that they arrived at the coral reef. The boys glanced as they were astonished, to see the only living coral reef in the United States. Quickly, they grabbed their snorkeling gear and entered the freezing waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Looking down, they saw a variety of beautiful fishes swimming under. Furthermore, the colossal coral reef ravishingly stood there in the ocean. Just seeing the gorgeous reef felt like nirvana. However, Henry’s pleasure suddenly vanished after hearing the sharp sounds a whistle. Lifeguards loudly shouted, “ Stop standing on the coral reef!” As Henry turned around, he noticed two imbeciles laughing while standing up on the reef. Soon, they hopped off the rocky reef to prevent further trouble. Then, a noisy siren sounded that called everyone to return to the boat. The boat soon flew off at immense speeds and in no time they arrived back on the coast of Key

Americans relate to Ancient Rome because of their Republican government, liberal arts and sciences, and class system. When making an Ancient Rome film many of the times they include actual themes occurring in today’s society, whether it may be low key or a prominent part of today's society, such as racism or religious identities. Hyper-masculinity comes into play for both films Pompeii and Quo Vadis as they both center around the ideas of power. In Pompeii, Milo wants power in order to rise against Pompeii’s class system. He wants vengeance for being stripped away from this power which resulted in his slavery. In Quo Vadis, Lygia and Vinicius strive for Christianity to be the central power for Rome. Pompeii and Quo Vadis both depict
