Historia de la ciudad de pompeya en ingles , .

Answer 1

was a city of Ancient Rome located along with Herculaneum and other smaller places in the Campania region near the modern city of Naples and located around the bay of the same name in the Metropolitan City of Naples. It was buried by the violent eruption of Vesuvius on August 24, 79 AD. C. and its inhabitants died due to the pyroclastic flow. Nearby is the modern and modern city of Pompeii. The origin of the place name of Pompeii is uncertain. As possible etymology is the one that counts Solino, 1 collection in Baltasar Manteli: 2 ... he adds that Hercules, when he was victorious from Spain, entered the Province of Campania, carrying in pomp the oxen he had stolen and which, by reason of this pomp, gave the name of Pompeii to the city which he built ... Another theory, also classical, derives the name of the osso pumpe (five), deducing that the city had been formed from five villages.3 The geographer Strabo proposed that it be derived from the Greek εκπεμπέιν (expedir), since Pompeii was situated near a river that served to "receive the goods and to send them."
