Afterlife Detour 6: Surviving Vesuvius
About this episode
The episode explores the survival of some inhabitants during the eruption of Mt Vesuvius and discusses who died and who escaped.
I always thought that the eruption of Mt Vesuvius in Roman imperial times not only destroyed the city of Pompeii, but all its inhabitants. Turns out that quite a lot of people escaped. In this detour episode join Bernie Maopolski of the Fan of History podcast and I, as we find out who died and who escaped. You can find Bernie's show at https://shows.acast.com/history.
