Pompeii is such an amazing archaeological site as it was frozen in time. Nor gradual decline. It really shows how the little things stay the same throughout history. From humor, to in this case, the presence of street food. I don't think there is any city we have found that is so preserved in time as Pompeii.
We should regularly kill and entomb a town as a sort of time capsule
I nominate The Villages
If Yellowstone goes off, then America will be entombed, but the words ecosystems will be fucked.
But if Yellowstone does not go off, then America won't be entombed, but the worlds ecosystems will be fucked.
