The origins of the Tiber Island in Rome
This paper presents the latest results from a geoarchaeological coring survey of Rome’s central river valley: new evidence demonstrates that the Tiber Island did not exist during the early centuries of human habitation at the site of Rome. Instead, the area was characterised by a low, seasonal bar formation on the riverbed, which would conceivably have aided prehistoric fording activity. The Tiber Island first emerged as a permanent land mass as …
Natural and anthropic influences on the transformation of the landscape in archaic Rome during the 6th c BCE
Urbanizing the Eternal City
On the Banks of the Tiber
A geoarchaeological coring survey of the Forum Boarium has shed considerable light on Rome's archaic landscape. We present the first empirical evidence that substantiates ancient and modern assumptions about the existence of a river harbour and ford in early Rome. Prior to the growth of the city, the riverbank — reconstructed as a high ledge at the base of the Capitoline Hill and a low-lying shore north of the Aventine — was particularly advantag…
Floodplain occupation and landscape modification in early Rome
Sant'Omobono
The church of Sant’Omobono sits above one of the highest human occupation sequences in the city of Rome. Some 3.5 m of sediment lie between the earliest known Bronze Age occupation lens and the base of the foundations of the early 6th c. B.C. temple, a further 13 m above which lies the floor of the present church, reconstructed in A.D. 1482. The site was sacred to the goddesses Fortuna and Mater Matuta for more than a millennium, before one of th…
