Description: The eruption of Mount Vesuvius led to the unique preservation of those who died in Pompeii and the areas immediately around it. For more than 200 years archaeologists have been creating plaster casts from the voids left behind by the dead, and today we’re still finding out new things about the people who called Pompeii home. Guest: Dr Estelle Lazer (Historian and forensic archaeologist, University of Sydney).
