An mosaic panel on travertine slabs depicting an erotic theme from the Roman era has been returned to the archaeological park of Pompeii after being stolen by a Nazi German captain during World War II.

Pompeii, the ancient Roman city buried by ash and lava in 70 AD, has unearthed a new treasure: a private bathhouse built 2,000 years ago.

Archeologists in Pompeii have discovered two skeletons that they believe were men who died when a wall collapsed on them during the powerful earthquakes that accompanied the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in A.D. 79.

Pompeii, the ancient city destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, is experiencing a kind of rebirth.
