Thank you so much.
I'm so, so, so happy to be here.
I know the ordinary people, I think, far too often get left out of the story.
And they are the story.
So I think, yeah, we need to start talking about that.
Definitely.
Exactly.
They're the people that built the empire.
They're the ones behind the scenes, the bakers, the politicians that were on a lower level, the slaves.
We don't talk about them.
And they are the ones holding the empire up.
So they definitely deserve a story for sure.
Yes.
You know, it was an ordinary town and that's what makes it remarkable in a way because of the way that it was preserved.
It's the sense that we've actually got this snow globe of a city.
And it was important just as much as any other town in the region was because Pompeii was in the region of Campania.
And that's a very, very fertile region because of Vesuvius.
Now, they didn't know this.
They didn't know Vesuvius was a volcano.
They just thought, fantastic, there's a really fertile area.
