Archaeologists digging in the ruins of Pompeii recently found the ancient remains of two men, captured at the moment of their deaths. The bodies were found in the staircase of a villa. Scientists made casts of the skeletons, to help get a better picture of who these people were. Researchers think one of the bodies belonged to a wealthy man in his 30s or 40s, and that the other remains were those of a younger man, 18 to 25, who may have been a servant or enslaved person.
