Armero is a city in Colombia that was buried by ash after a nearby volcano erupted, killing about 30,000 people. On the morning of November 13, 1985 the volcano "Nevado del Ruiz" erupted, spewing volcanic ash and causing mudslides 104 meters thick. Almost no one in Armero survived the explosion. The city was buried in ash and mud, and remains buried like the city of Pompeji.
