Where Did the Survivors Go? - Live Science article interviewing Dr. Steven Tuck regarding the survivors of Pompeii and the aid distributed by the emperor Titus.

- Pliny the Younger's Letters - English translation of Book 6 of Pliny's letters. His account of Pliny the Younger's death and the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius are in letters 6.16 and 6.20.
