Pompeii: The Bodies in the Basement

A new investigation into one of the most harrowing gravesites of the 79AD eruption, where more than 55 bodies were found cowering in a warehouse at a site that has long baffled archaeologists. While the skeletons at the back of the room have no possessions, those crowded at the front are laden with jewellery and gold - but why, in the chaos of their dying moments, were the bodies so starkly divided by wealth?
