Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -1. Casts of volcano victims. When excavations of Pompeii began in the early 1800s, excavators noticed there were gaps in the ash around the bodies. By pouring plaster of Paris into the voids, excavators were able to preserve the final faces and poses of the people of Pompeii.
Detailed explanation-2: -Archeologists have been exploring the remnants of Pompeii since the 1700s, unearthing artifacts that paint a detailed picture of what life was like in the ancient city before the devastating eruption. Because the town was largely preserved under ash, it offers a rare glimpse of a place and its people frozen in time.
