Pompeii is the most famous archaeological site in the world, and arguably where the modern discipline of archaeology began. Excavations here began over 250 years ago, and discoveries are still being made, both as the result of excavation and because of the ongoing reassessment of previously discovered material. The Oxford Handbook to Pompeii and its Environs presents an up-to-date assessment of our current state of knowledge, not just about the city of Pompeii but including its hinterland and the neighbouring archaeological sites of Herculaneum, Stabiae, Boscoreale and others. This Handbook is at once historiographical and cutting-edge, covering how scholarship has evolved over the long history of excavation and the current developments in fieldwork and scholarship.
