	San Sebastiano al Vesuvio: Just the facts... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		San Sebastiano al Vesuvio is a small village located on the western slopes of Mount Vesuvius (A volcano in southwestern Italy on the Mediterranean coast; a Plinian eruption in 79 AD buried Pompeii and killed Pliny the Elder; last erupted in 1944).
		Its elevation means that it is often a few degrees cooler than the neighbouring metropolis of Naples (A port and tourist center in southwestern Italy; capital of the Campania region).
		It was destroyed in 1944 by the most recent eruption of Mount Vesuvius during the allies occupation of southern Italy (A republic in southern Europe on the Italian Peninsula; was the core of the Roman Republic and the Roman Empire between the 4th century BC and the 5th century AD).

		Pur tuttavia,non essendo il vulcano considerato in stato di quiescenza, alcuni interventi legislativi hanno individuato una zona rossa comprendente 18 Comuni (quelli del Parco oltre a Cercola, Pompei, Portici, San Giorgio a Cremano, Torre Annunziata); le amministrazioni di questi Comuni hanno predisposto e devono tenere costantemente aggiornato un piano di evacuazione.
		Oggi, peraltro, grazie anche a studi comparati con vulcani simili al Vesuvio, si sono chiariti numerosi aspetti di quell'eruzione che, ben descritti da Plinio il giovane, erano stati considerati viziati da eccessiva fantasiosità.
		Delle città sepolte di Ercolano e Pompei, nessuna traccia venne scoperta fino al 1713, quando alcuni lavoranti intenti a scavare un pozzo, trovarono i resti di Ercolano a circa 8 metri di profondità.

	Parco Nazionale del Vesuvio - Protected Area
		Volcanism in the Somma-Vesuvio area has been active since 400.000 years ago, as it is demonstrated by the presence of lava and tufa alternating with marine sediments, cored in the south-eastern part of the volcano at 1350 m of depth (Santacroce, 1987; Brocchini et al.,2001).
		Parco Nazionale del Vesuvio was established on 5th June 1995 with the aim to preserve animal and vegetal species, vegetal and forest associations, geological peculiarities, palaeontological formations, biological communities, biotopes, scenic and panoramic values, natural processes, hydraulic and hydrogeological balances, and ecological balances.
		Therefore, Parco Nazionale del Vesuvio represents an anomaly among the European Natural Parks, a sort of challenge aimed to rescue the wilderness and the charm of Vesuvius and Mt. Somma from deterioration and giving them back to the current and future generations they belong to.

	VESUVIUS: The making of a catastrophe
		Bad data should be communicated to local administrations and research entities on the territory, such that Vesuvio can be watched by all and that all can contribute their ideas without alarming nobody in order to be able to understand how we should behave during an eruption.
		The population which lives in the shadow of Vesuvio replaced the fear with indifference, and that is why a civil protection plan requires to consider the psychosis of masses.
		The video "Rischio Vesuvio", produced by the Department of Civil Protection to "educate" the population creates serious perplexities, since it was not pre-screened for its contents by the local administrators before it was destined by the Undersecretary of Civil Protection to be distributed in all of the schools on the territory.

	Mitigation of Volcanic Disasters in Densely Populated Areas
		After this eruption, Vesuvius entered a phase of strombolian and effusive eruptions where some of them also produced a great deal of damage, such as the eruption of 1794 that destroyed Torre del Greco, and the eruption of 1944 which destroyed San Sebastiano al Vesuvio [9-11].
		Vesuvius is now preparing for its next reawakening which may be large or medium in intensity, and can cause an unprecedented human and environmental catastrophe due to the high population density very close to the crater of the volcano.
		Even a small eruption could produce tens or hundreds of thousands dead and affect at least 3,000,000 people who live in the 30 km radius of the volcano where the infrastructures are totally inadequate for the territory of such a high risk.
