Naples museum


After getting the train from Roma to Naples we stopped somewhere on the way and stayed at a hotel that night. National Archaeological Museum. It had heaps of mosaics that had been dug out and gathered from Pompeii and brought in to the town of Naples. Where they tile by tile fixed all the ruined pieces of mosaics that had been destroyed by Vesuvius, which also killed everyone who lived there and covered the whole city.  The Museum also had loads of marble sculptures where people had carved a model for years and years. Day by day they carved and chiseled the marble until they made a masterpiece.
