Pompeii Archaeologists Discover Ancient Frescoes Depicting Greek Myths

The ancient city of Pompeii has yielded more of its treasures, in the form of sophisticated fresco paintings. Researchers with the Archaeological Park of Pompeii shared footage of the artworks – which have been sealed away since the Roman city was buried in a volcanic eruption in 79 CE. Archaeologists believe the art shows scenes from Greek mythology. These 2000-year-old finds likely won’t be the last ones uncovered in Pompeii – roughly a third of the city has yet to be excavated.
