Archaeologists at work.
It seems that whenever anyone wants to undertake a new building in Rome, (or probably even do any renovations)
Before building, this area will be inspected for historical treasures
the archaeologists have to be consulted as treasures might be found anywhere, particularly around the Colosseum and other ancient sites.
Palatine Hill and Roman Forum
The idea of using Viator Tours, visit them at http://viator.com was partly to avoid queues, but waiting here, outside the gate to ‘Ancient Rome,’ I was so excited that the wait didn’t matter. Once inside, there was so much to see and Lucia was so enthusiastic and informative that I found it impossible to record her words, take photos and have any chance of remembering more than what were, for me, the highlights. So, for those of you who are Roman history buffs, please excuse my mistakes and fell free to correct my efforts.
