Pompeii: New discoveries as archaeologists begin biggest excavation in a generation
Archaeologists have begun the biggest excavation of the ancient city of Pompeii in a generation.
Several new discoveries have already been uncovered, including a bakery, human skeletons and a painting resembling a pizza.
Pompeii in the south of Italy, was a sophisticated ancient Roman city destroyed by a catastrophic volcanic eruption from Mount Vesuvius nearly 2,000 years ago.
Today, it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most visited tourist attractions in Italy.
