Daily Mail: Dutch tourist damaged an ancient Roman building in Italy
A Dutch tourist damaged an ancient Roman building that survived the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. This is reported by the Daily Mail with reference to the Italian police.
It is clarified that the incident occurred in the ancient Roman city of Herculaneum near Naples. A 27-year-old tourist painted graffiti on a white section of the wall using an indelible marker. He was caught by the police, but his name was not disclosed. Now he is facing legal proceedings due to damage to a building of artistic and architectural value.
Earlier, an English-speaking tourist scratched his name and the bride’s name on the wall of the Colosseum with a key and was cursed online. The Italians called the man’s behavior mean.
