Answer:

It is important as it was a prominent civilization group that documented daily life and complex thought in the form of art.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pompeii is widely known for it's death by volcano. What makes it more important/interesting to study than other civilizations that there are artifacts of culture depicted in their art that survived the volcano. Looking at their art is like looking through a window in time and getting to see what their home was like before its death.
