ROME -- Scenes of Roman life, myths and decorations, buried nearly two millennia ago by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, go on display for the first time in years in an exhibit opening the end of December in Rome.
The show at the National Roman Museum brings together more than 100 artworks that adorned private and public buildings in Pompeii, Herculaneum and other towns near Naples that were destroyed by the eruption in A.D. 79.
