Excerpt: ...explosion, the bottom opened, and fin' burst forth, which, slowly but uninterruptedly, threw up a small internal cone formed of fragments of former lava. Meanwhile f rom its base, now in one part, now in another, spouted out small jets of lava which, unable to proceed on account of the obstacle of the crater-walls, expanded and accumulated round the new cone which, meanwhile, continued slowly rising. This state of activity, now more, now less, lasted up to February 184."), at which period the internal cone had risen to such a height, that it surmounted the edge of the crater, and was visible from Naples; and its eruptions, hitherto only observed from the top of the mountain, could now be seen from a distance.

The restlessness of the mountain increased frightfully until, on the 5th February, the great Vesuvian cone burst open on the north side in such a manner, that the enormous fissure was visible from its summit to its base. Several adventitious cones formed on the Atrio del Cavallo, from the base of which issued torrents of fire devastating the eastern part of the Atrio, and the fields below, as far as Ottaiano. On the 10lh February a great quantity of sand was thrown out, and on the 12th the eruption was over. Great changes were found to have taken place on Vesuvius, when its ascent had once more become possible. Instead of the former flat summit there were now two spacious and deep craters with 8 openings on the eastern side, from all of which lava was constantly flowing. The descent...

Download or read book Encyclopedia of the History of Classical Archaeology written by Nancy Thomson de Grummond and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-05-11 with total page 1579 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With 1,125 entries and 170 contributors, this is the first encyclopedia on the history of classical archaeology. It focuses on Greek and Roman material, but also covers the prehistoric and semi-historical cultures of the Bronze Age Aegean, the Etruscans, and manifestations of Greek and Roman culture in Europe and Asia Minor. The Encyclopedia of the History of Classical Archaeology includes entries on individuals whose activities influenced the knowledge of sites and monuments in their own time; articles on famous monuments and sites as seen, changed, and interpreted through time; and entries on major works of art excavated from the Renaissance to the present day as well as works known in the Middle Ages. As the definitive source on a comparatively new discipline - the history of archaeology - these finely illustrated volumes will be useful to students and scholars in archaeology, the classics, history, topography, and art and architectural history.
