Mount Vesuvius Mount Vesuvius ( ; Italian: "Monte Vesuvio" ] ; Neapolitan: "Vesuvio" ; Latin: "Mons Vesuvius" ] ; also "Vesevus " or "Vesaevus " in some Roman sources) is a somma-stratovolcano located on the Gulf of Naples in Campania, Italy, about 9 km east of Naples and a short distance from the shore. It is one of several volcanoes which form the Campanian volcanic arc. Vesuvius consists of a large cone partially encircled by the steep rim of a summit caldera caused by the collapse of an earlier and originally much higher structure.
Avernus Avernus was an ancient name for a volcanic crater near Cumae (Cuma), Italy, in the Region of Campania west of Naples. Part of the Phlegraean Fields of volcanoes, Avernus is approximately 3.2 km in circumference. Within the crater is Lake Avernus ("Lago d'Averno ").
