Maybe they were very poor, and figured they could make themselves some money?

Apparantly a LOT of people have walked over the solidifying lava in order to get back to their homes to salvage their property and look for missing family members. Any of us might do the same.

As for building a city in dagerous locations.... well... what about cities built on the San Andreas fault in the US, as well as in other known earhquake and volcano zones earthwide? There is usually good reason for building in such areas, like soil fertility, for example.
I personally would not choose to live in such an area! I think it's insane! But people who do seem to think nothing of it. I guess its what you are used to. [img]smile.gif[/img]
