Carlo V Superiorie at Herculaneum

Description

A road in the ruined Roman town of Herculaneum, buried after the eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79. "The town of Herculaneum was based on a grid pattern of streets. Unlike Pompeii, its roads were ungrooved as there was not the constant flow of heavy carts through its streets." http://www.ancienthistoryarchaeology.com/herculaneum-an-overview
