Colonnade Around the Forum, Pompeii, Italy
A detail of the Colonnade around the Forum, on July 3, 2007 in Pompeii, Italy. The Forum, or civic centre of the city, was built in the 2nd century BC and surrounded by two-storey colonnaded porticoes with Doric columns. Pompeii was seriously damaged by an earthquake in 62AD and engulfed by Volcanic ash after a major eruption of Mount Vesuvius in August 79AD. It lay almost undisturbed until archaeologists started to excavate it seriously in the 18th century.
