17 ore 24 agos 79 anni - "5:00 p.m.: A roof collapses in Pompeii
from the weight of the pumice stone
and ash. Fist-sized lithics (rocks) are
also falling at a speed of 50m per
second on the area. The sun is blocked
and thus no natural light was available
to the people seeking shelter from the eruption.
Many rush towards the harbor of Pompeii. I
nto the evening, a gray pumice begins to fall."
