Once the glorious town of ancient Rome, this history that is almost lost to everyone's memory is now awakening the world once again. Pompeii, the ancient city that was swallowed up by the smoke and dust of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, has precipitated the imprint of civilization in the long river of time, and also left endless lamentations and sighs. Now, let's lift the veil of time and explore that forgotten historical memory!
In the rich history of human civilization, Pompeii was once a shining beacon, with bright streets and shops lined up, and people walking there were full of laughter and energy. The dazzling array of goods on the street attracts people's eyes for viewing and buying. Who would have thought that such a bustling city would be just a superficial phenomenon. The evil hidden under the prosperity and the distortion of human nature are equally jaw-dropping. As the birds hover in the air and the hoarse singing of nightingales can be heard in the wide Colosseum, do you realize at this moment that this is the same setting for the Irish political movement hundreds of years later?
More than 2,000 years ago, Pompeii was the political, cultural and commercial center of ancient Rome, and was known for its wealth and prosperity. Superior agricultural conditions, wealthy merchants and craftsmen constituted the main social strata of Pompeii, who supported each other and together created a prosperous social scene. However, under the prosperity lurk many bad Xi and evil. The profligate consumption of the aristocracy led to fierce conflicts between different classes. The gap between the rich and the poor is widening, the sense of security in life is gradually decreasing, and more and more Pompeii citizens begin to lose their simple and industrious qualities and become greedy and selfish.
Gladiatorial performances, frenzied gambling establishments, the rise of the sex industry, and human trafficking make Pompeii a true purgatory. The aristocracy saw this as a form of entertainment, while those who were forced to suffer were as uncertain as wildflowers that could be picked at their fingertips. No one could stop this, for the Pompeians had been lost in the exuberance of feasting and socializing. When the fresh seafood has not yet cooled and the exquisite tapestries of the mosaics still exude their seductive aromas, Pompeii was destroyed on that day in 79 AD.
The volcano erupted, and the sound of volcanic ash and wind instantly buried the hustle and bustle of the entire city, and all the prosperity and sin disappeared without a trace in an instant along with the crazy roar of the volcano. The people of Pompeii, who lived in the thousand-story buildings of Nie Nie, along with their hopes and dreams, are forever buried in the long river of history.
The former Pompeii brought us not only a shocking tragedy of decay, but also a desire for a harmonious homeland and a call for spiritual purification. At that time, the aristocrats, craftsmen, and ordinary citizens, the historical music they composed together has now become a resounding sound. The birds still fly freely, and the beautiful but ruined buildings elegantly tell the joys and sorrows of generations in the ruins. Where the alarm bell of history rings, we must soberly face the prosperity and crisis of the present and strive to explore the way of harmonious coexistence between man and nature, so that mankind can avoid entering a tragic situation like Pompeii.
This kind of precious and sad story, heritage, is our obituary of this ancient city, our torture of human nature, and our awe and respect for Mother Nature. Let us remember the glorious history of this ancient Roman, feel their love and hatred with our hearts, and let us inherit the depth and affection of this history!
