A map showing the cities and towns affected by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. The general shape of the ash and cinder fall (see w:en:pyroclast) is shown by the dark area to the southeast of Mt Vesuvius. (P.S. It seems strange to show the modern day English names for the two bodies of water - I am open to suggestions). This map shows lines and uses the Mercator projection (although that is not important on a map of this scale). North is, as usual, at the top of the map.
This is a retouched picture, which means that it has been digitally altered from its original version. Modifications: Dutch version. The original can be viewed here: Mt Vesuvius 79 AD eruption 3.svg: . Modifications made by Citypeek.
