Forum Romanum (Roman)
|
|
|
The Forum Romanum was the central area around which ancient Rome developed, in which commerce, business, trading and the administration of justice took place. Here the communal hearth was located. Sequences of remains of paving show that sediment eroded from the surrounding hills was already raising the level of the forum in early Republican times. Originally it had been marshy ground, which was drained by the Tarquins with the Cloaca Maxima. Its final travertine paving, still to be seen, dates from the reign of Augustus.
It is now famous for the remains, which eloquently show the use of urban spaces during the Roman Age. The Roman Forum includes the following major monuments, buildings and other ancient ruins:
Temple of Castor and Pollux
Temple of Jupiter
Temple of Saturn
Temple of Vesta
Basilica Aemilia
Basilica Julia
Arch of Septimius Severus
Arch of Titus
Rostra
