Ինչ են իրենց մեջ «թաքցնում» Պոմպեյի 1.900-ամյա մումիաները (լուսանկարներ)

Հեռավոր 79թ. սոսկալի հրաբխի պատճառով կործանված Պոմպեյ քաղաքը շարունակում է մնալ գիտական հանրությանը հետաքրքրող թեմաների շրջանակում։ Ասվածի ապացույցն է հրաբխային լավայից քարացած մարդկային մումիաների ներքին մանրամասն ուսումնասիրությունը` նորագույն տեխնոլոգիաների միջոցով:

Ինչպես նշում է The Daily Mail-ը, լավայի ու մոխրի քարացած խառնուրդի մեջ ամփոփված մարդկային կմախքներն ունեն 1.900 տարվա պատմություն: Հայտնի է, որ մասնագետներն ամենայն մանրամասնությամբ սքանավորել են ժամանակի մեջ սառած արձանները` պարզելու համար, թե ինչ է «թաքնված» դրանց ներսում:

Ըստ գիտնականների՝ նմուշներից մեկը 4-5 տարեկան տղա երեխա է, ում հայտնաբերել են տղամարդու և կնոջ սառած մարմինների կողքին։ Հետաքրքրական է, որ անցած հարյուրամյակների ընթացքում հիանալիորեն պահպանվել են ոչ միայն նրա ատամներն ու բոլոր ոսկորները, այլև՝ հագուստը։

Restorers are working on the carefully preserved plaster casts of 86 of the Romans trapped in Pompeii in 79 AD, including children seemingly frozen in terror. Here, Stefano Vanacore, director of the laboratory at Pompeii Archaeological Site can be seen carrying the remains of a petrified child in his armsLasers used as part of the scanning process are shown on top of the boys head in the right-hand picture

The little boy’s clothing is visible in the plaster cast but now scans have revealed his tiny skeleton beneath these clothes. One scan (left) resembles the 3D-scans taken during pregnancy and shows the young boys lips pursed, as if in shock

Archaeologists have spent the past year carefully restoring and scanning the preserved bodies of 86 Romans who died when Mount Vesuvius erupted near Pompeii in 79ADThey have now released the first results of these scans to show what lies beneath the plaster and casings of the people frozen in time (pictured)

Handheld scanners are also used to determine the features and positions of the bodies beneath the casts (pictured), especially those that are too fragile to fit inside the scanners. The scans are taken to prevent the restorers from accidentally damaging the remains

The boy (cast pictured in the foreground before going in the CT scanner) was discovered alongside an adult male and female, presumed to be his parents, as well as a younger child who appeared to be asleep on his mothers lap

 

Other scans attempt to bring the skull of another victim to life using a specific contrast dye that mimics the appearance of muscles and skin

 

These scans help accentuate the victims teeth, but their empty eye sockets and collapsed nose give them a macabre feel

Once the scans are taken, experts can rotate and study the images in greater detail than is possible when studying the physical remains. The inside of this victims mouth including teeth and even cavities are pictured

Many of the buildings, artefacts and skeletons (selection pictured) were found intact under a layer of debris. The site is now classified as a Unesco World Heritage Site and more than 2.5 million tourists visit each year
