-ARCHAEOLOGY ROME: IN SPRING OPENING OF STAGE PALATINE
''In the spring, will be open to the public stadium built by Domitian, Palatine Hill, the last part of the architectural complex of the imperial palace. An imposing structure, a stage on top of the Palatine hill, with an arena 160 feet long and 48 wide, spectacular scenery that will soon be finally visited inside.''
was announced in a Note Undersecretary for Cultural Heritage, Francesco Giro. And next to the Stadium''- adds Giro - the arches of Severus, Roman substructures, arched structures on two levels as high as 20 feet, built by Domitian and completed by Septimius Severus, a system used by the Romans to make space in plan and build upon the spa the first in the Palatine. It will also be a ride in the history of imperial Rome, Domitian (81-96 AD) who started the construction of his palace and the Stadium, Septimius Severus who built the Baths (193-211), and Maxentius (307-312) to which we have a wonderful closing Esedra the stadium.''
''The year 2010 was an exceptional year for the archeology of Rome - highlights Secretary - with the opening of the third tier of the Colosseum, the hypogea, the Temple of Venus and Rome and the Imperial Villa Quintili Appia Antica. The 2011 will be an important year for the Roman archeology with two events that I consider of great historical and cultural interest: the inauguration of the House of Vestal and enhancement of the Lapis Niger.'' ''The House of the Vestal Virgins was the center of religious life in Rome, home of the priestly college of the Vestal Virgins of ancient Rome, the Roman Forum - explains Giro - was placed behind the Director and composed a unicuum with the Temple of Vesta, in a Vestae complex called Atrium. The opening is scheduled for mid-January and will allow us to make public the latest discoveries about the exact location and organization of the House of the Vestal Virgins of child directed with Andrea Carandini, an archaeologist of international repute and character of the excavations in this area. If the House of the Vestal Virgins is the religious heart of Rome, the Lapis Niger is the heart of Rome public where the people gathered at the meeting since he directed, VII-VI century. With a work in progress and visible to the public, already operating for about a year - make - we value this area of \u200b\u200bthe rally, placed in front of the curia of the Senate, in the heart of the Roman Forum.
''Two other projects distinguishing trait of the 2001 and Lazio will look to archeology. The exploitation of the excavations of the ancient city on the main Via Gabii and the opening of the amphitheater of the Temple of Hercules Victor at Tivoli - Points Giro - Gabii was called the Little Rome and most likely hosted Tarquinius, the Etruscan family of the King of Rome. In this sense, it would explain the recent discovery of a direction similar to that of the Forum.
The Temple of Hercules Victor at Tivoli is a huge complex that also virtually rebuild through beams of light where there is also an industrial plant that will try to exploit the 800 stands and adopting modern technologies and high-impact''.'' These are projects that will be shared with the Lazio region and the junta Polverini - concluded the Secretary - very careful with the government to promote the development the cultural heritage of the region.''
