Just imagine how much more they could have found.

I am sure there is much more to find in Pompeii. Last figure I heard was something like only 25% has been excavated. I've been there twice, with about 10 years in between trips, and this last trip was amazing. You can see many areas that haven't even begun to be touched. The amphitheater was amazing. (lots of tours don't make it to the back end of Pompeii, but if you go off season that is where you start out!)

We are researching a trip to the Greek islands and turkey. We thought about going to Troy, but everything I have read states the ruins are not very good and there really isn't much there. Has anyone else visited that area?
