Archaeologists Uncover Skeletons and Treasures in Pompeii Bedroom

Recent excavations reveal a man and woman who sought refuge during the 79 AD eruption, providing new insights into ancient Roman life.

The remains were found in a makeshift bedroom used during home renovations in Region IX of Pompeii.
The woman was discovered on a bed with gold, silver, and bronze coins, and jewelry including gold and pearl earrings.
The man was found at the foot of the bed, both victims trapped by pumice and killed by pyroclastic flow.
The discovery follows recent finds in the same area, including a 'Blue Shrine' room with sacred objects.
Archaeologists reconstructed the room's furnishings using impressions left in the ash, offering a glimpse into daily life before the eruption.
