Mount Emei

Mount Vesuvius is a volcano close to the Bay of Naples in Italy. This volcano is classed as a stratovolcano, this is because its eruptions usually involve explosive eruptions and pyroclastic flows.

This location allowed the Church to overlook the ruins of the Temple, and symbolized the rise of Christianity in the city while Judaism was still in ruins.

Factors a group or agency should consider when memorializing an event or person and in creating a monument is the location, which should be in

It always seemed a bit cliché when people speak or write on specific 'events ' that change how they viewed themselves and their world. At the surface, I often discard comments of people who see just one event changing their lives for (typically) better or worse.
