When you say things like "rewrite history" the implication is one of significance.
The month Vesuvius erupted is fairly irrelevant. There aren't any consequences to the fact changing. Pompeii is quite important in historical understanding of Rome, you would expect "history rewriting" discoveries to really be something. This isn't. Mildly interesting perhaps.
