Bonucci, Carlo
Carlo Bonucci (1799 - 1870) was an Italian archaeologist. Bonucci was the director of excavations at Pompeii and Herculaneum from 1824 until at least 1850, if not until 1855. Bonucci was demoted for lying at one point during his career, only to be elevated again because his successor fell ill. Giuseppe Fiorelli became the director of excavations in 1848, when he was arrested and imprisoned after Bonucci falsely accused him of being a nationalist republican. Fiorelli spent two months in prison, from April to June 1849, only to be rearrested not long after being released because someone else accused him of the same offense. Fiorelli was in jail until January 1850.
