Herculaneum was totally buried in superheated pyroclastic ash and lava during the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79AD. The town was forgotten until 1710 when the first remains were found. In 1738 Carl von Bourbon, the king of Naples, started a systematic excavation of the area which has continued until the present day. Much of the area cannot be excavated because it lies under the modern town of Ercolano.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"CENTER\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large; color: #2b2573;\" size=\"4\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFine condition.
