On March 29, 1980 after a period of one-hundred and twenty-three years of inactivity a earthquake under the volcano quaked, and seven days later a pheartic (steam) explosions began. As magma pushed up from beneath the earth's surface, the north side of the mountain developed a bulge. Angle and slope-distance measurements indicating that the bulge was
• Sites also tend to reveal more about the wealthy and literate than the poor, particularly women. • Viewing evidence through modern, western eyes i.e. each room has one purpose – didn’t in Rome. • Concerns in relation to the possible bias in sources Eruption and the Last Agonies of Pompeii and Herculaneum Warning Signs • Vesuvius had apparently been dormant for a very long time • According to Vulcanologists there is a strong link between the magnitude of an eruption and the preceding period of dormancy • It is estimated that the thermal energy released during the AD 79 eruption would have been approximately 100,000 times that of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima in 1945. • The massive Earthquake in AD 62, described by Seneca, indicates that the volcano was returning to life.
Many people who lived there took advantage of the many ships that came into the port. They did a lot of trading and selling in Pompeii and many other Roman cities. Everything seemed to be going great until a volcano eruption occurred. A volcanic eruption is one of the most devastating natural disasters. The worst volcanic eruption is the eruption of Mount Vesuvius which happened on August 24th 79 AD.
All people in the hotel were getting out at this point, and the manager told the guests that probably was a volcano eruption. We were staying around the trailer and filming the whole event until a big explosion wiped out and the debris seems more serious. That was about 30 minutes after the first earthquake. Our team leader decided to go to the communication center and see if we can help or get help there as all the residents were tiding up and going to the center now. We were terrified but still shooting this great footage until the equipment team told us they used the wet towel stuffed the around the parts of the engine that would intake air when they started.

Henry Pickman 9th Grade English News Story U.S Troops storm the volcanic beaches of Iwo Jima! On February 19th, 1945, the USMC (United States Marine Corps) and the Navy Seals attacked the Japanese island Iwo Jima with over seventy thousand troops. These marines and Navy Seals consisted of the Third, Fourth and Fifth divisions. Many Marines stated that “this battle was going to be no sweat”, but had the Marines known about the American bombings on the island had not even come close to putting a dent in the defenses or lowering the morale of the troops, they would have thought very differently. The troops also didn’t know about the vast expanse of tunnel systems under the island, because of these tunnels, combat between the Americans and Japanese would not be straightforward.
A magnitude 4.2 earthquake on March 20, 1980 preceded by several smaller earthquakes beginning as early as March 16, was the first substantial indication of Mt. Saint Helens awakening from its 123-year slumber. With a thunderous explosion, widely heard throughout the region around noon on March 27, Mt. Saint Helens began to spew ash and steam, marking the first significant eruption in the conterminous United States since that of Lassen Peak in California. The crown of the ash column rose approximately 6,000 feet above the volcano.
The people of the Earth suffered most of it because with day and light always switching, people can't sleep well, can’t plant their crops, and many more. Then they tried to sacrifice thousands of human beings each year to please the gods in exchange for a good harvest season, but the sacrificing did not help to stop the war. At least, for another fifteen years, the war has been going on and people suffered more. With millions of people been sacrificed during these years, finally, Nahito has signed a peace treaty with Abudorius and stopped the battle. He established a rule that only the Sun can come out in the day and only the Moon can come out at night to help the humans to get a better life.
Professor Marinatos was the first to suggest in 1939 that the eruption of Thera, was the cause for the devastation. His theory argued that the earthquakes destroyed the palaces, tsunamis eradicated the Minoans, and the ash from Thera covered the whole island destroying crops and killing animals. Many geologists argue that the effects described by Marinatos were possible. Others disagree. New information from D, M, Pyle placed the majority of the ash of the volcano to the East, with little effect upon the island of Crete.
