Ancient Mysteries: Pompeii - Buried Alive

Actress Kathleen Turner takes viewers through the ancient ruins of Pompeii, which was buried under ash in 79 A.D. when Mount Vesuvius erupted. People in this Roman city received no warning and were buried alive while going about their daily chores and routines. While it was obviously a tragic event, it has preserved a time capsule of information about how life was lived centuries ago.
