  • date, legth, refs fine, no apparent copyvio/pl. pic: license fine, but would need higher contrast to show anything small size. hook: good for those who know Herculaneum. How about including the vulcano? or the finding, pic of house, mentioning of royal family? Please improve refs by adding publisher and date.
