city of pompeii map

...about Pompeii is the sheer scope of it. It is amazing to think that an entire city was covered and preserved by the eruption of Vesuvius, and provides such a remarkable glimpse into the life of the ancient Romans. As can be seen from the map I created at the time of my visit, I was barely able to get a start of seeing what there is at Pompeii in a whole day (the tourist map gives a better picture of the place than my map, and I stole the image from this great website).
