Archaeology of Twentieth-Century Rome
When Rome became the capital of a unified Italian state in 1871, the city lagged behind other European capitals in contemporary architectural expression. Ancient ruins evoked a distant glory, although the area of Rome containing the Imperial Fora was covered over by a dense urban residential quarter called the Alessandrino District. The quarter was labelled a slum district by fascist propaganda, and it was demolished in the early 1930s to make wa…
Renaissance Rome and the Italian Glass Connection
Italy had a prominent role in the Renaissance European glass market, thanks to three centers of production located in Venice, Tuscany, and Liguria. The substantial amount of glass finds excavated in the 16th-century a.d. dumps of the Forum of Caesar is the object of this first interdisciplinary study of glass from Renaissance Rome. The typology reveals the predominance of medical containers, followed by tableware with parallels in Tuscan producti…
Disease control and the disposal of infectious materials in Renaissance Rome
Excavations in Rome have long focused on the early city; only recently has attention turned to the archaeology of the medieval and later periods. Here, the authors present a rare sixteenth-century context, dating to a time when European cities contended with repeat epidemics and implemented measures to control the spread of disease. A contextual approach to the assemblage leads to its identification as a 'medical dump' of clinical equipment, incl…
High-Definition Urban Narratives from Central Rome
Since 2017, excavations have taken place on Caesar’s Forum in Rome. The area holds archaeological evidence covering three thousand years of Rome’s prehistory and historical periods. The excavations offer wide-ranging research possibilities connected to the urban development of one of the classical world’s pivotal city centres. However, the location’s centrality also offers challenges when transforming the vast bulk and complex nature of the archa…
Note di topografia sull’area del Teatro di Marcello
L’articolo prende in esame l’evoluzione topografica del Campo Marzio Meridionale, e in particolare l’area compresa tra il teatro di Marcello e l’omonima via moderna, per un arco cronologico compreso tra l’età repubblicana e il tardo antico. Si tratta di una sintesi che tiene conto delle più recenti indagini archeologiche presentando nuovi dati riguardanti la viabilità, la lastricatura dell’area antistante il teatro di Marcello e il sistema fognar…
