History
Naples grew from a Greek settlement (Parthenope) into a Roman and medieval hub; Vesuvius’ 79 AD eruption preserved nearby Pompeii and Herculaneum under volcanic ash.
Conservation
Archaeological parks are fragile—stay on designated paths, avoid touching mosaics or frescoes, and follow site rules to limit wear. Tourism management aims to balance access with long‑term preservation.
