A Roman fresco has been discovered that reveals what could be an ancient ancestor of pizza from 2,000 years ago. The painting was recently discovered during excavations in the Regio IX area of Pompeii’s archaeological park in Italy. The remains of the Roman city are close to Naples, the birthplace of pizza, and the artwork itself is believed to be two thousand years old. "What was depicted on the wall of an ancient Pompeian house could be a distant ancestor of the modern dish,” experts at the archaeological park said in a statement. The fresco appears to depict a round focaccia bread served with a variety of fruits. Experts think the bread is seasoned with a herb cheese spread known as a moretum which was eaten by the Romans, The Guardian reported. The bread is served with wine and fruits including pomegranate, a date and something that looks like pineapple although that fruit was not discovered by Europeans until 1493 when Christopher Columbus came across it in Guadeloupe. The "pizza" also lacks two classic ingredients; tomatoes and mozzarella. Tomatoes were introduced to Europe from the Americas in the 16th century and so were unavailable in Roman times.- Some experts believe that the discovery of mozzarella may have led directly to the invention of pizza in the 1700s. Pompeii itself was buried under ash when Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79AD. More than 1,300 victims have been found over the last 250 years in the archaeological site 14 miles south of Naples. Every resident died when the city was hit by a ‘pyroclastic’ hot surge. These surges are a collection of hot gas and volcanic materials that flow down the side of an erupting volcano at high speed. They are more dangerous than lava because they are faster, with speeds of 450mph and temperatures of 1,000C. Read More Italy might stop hiring foreign museum directors.

A new documentary is set to offer insight into the life of Formula 1 legend Michael Schumacher. The German has not been seen in public since suffering a brain injury in a skiing accident in December 2013. The seven-time F1 world champion left hospital in 2014 and his family have maintained strict privacy over his injury and condition. A new five-part documentary by German broadcaster ARD is set to air to mark ten years since his incident in the French Alps. The final details of the documentary are yet to be revealed, but it is due to be released on 28 December. Schumacher won 91 races during his F1 career and five successive Drivers Championship crowns between 2000 and 2004. A Netflix documentary, “Schumacher”, aired in 2021 and featured an update from his wife, Corinna, who said that her husband was “different, but here”. “Unfortunately, life isn’t fair sometimes,” the seven-time world champion’s younger brother Ralf Schumacher told German magazine Bunte recently. “We have to accept it. When I see his children Gina-Maria and Mick, my heart smiles. If anyone in the family seeks my advice, I am there. They go their own way.” The Schumacher siblings remain the only pair of brothers to each win a Formula 1 race, with Ralf winning six times across a decade in the sport. “In the Schumacher family we have always stuck together,” Ralf explained of his relationship with his older brother while the pair were both racers. “There was no envy. I just wasn’t good enough here and there.” Read More F1 2023 official calendar: All 23 Grand Prix this year ‘Sometimes life isn’t fair’: Michael Schumacher’s brother opens up about accident Michael Schumacher update: Lawyer explains lack of ‘final report’ on F1 star’s health

The 2023 Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix has been called off due to flooding at Imola. Heavy rain in the area forced Formula 1 personnel to be asked to leave the paddock on Tuesday, with race officials confirming the cancellation on Wednesday. Italian authorities had issued flood and landslide warnings as the rising level of water in the Santerno river, which runs close to the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari, threatened the circuit. While the paddock remained free from flooding on Wednesday morning, car parks and other areas nearby have been caught in the deluge as F1 staff were advised not to travel to Imola. And with heavy rain not expected to cease until Thursday, organisers were left with no choice but to call off the sixth race of the season. At least three people in the region of Emilia-Romagna have been killed in the flooding, with more than 5,000 evacuated from their homes. Ferrari said in a statement: "Our thoughts and sympathies are with the people of Emilia-Romagna and Marche as they deal with the destruction caused by the heavy rain and flooding currently affecting the area."
