Ostia was founded as a fortified post close to the mouth of the Tiber river at the beginning of the 4th century B. C. After the defeat of the Etruscan town of Veio It immediately became a river port, acquiring a commercial function to supply Rome with food stuff. The urban aspect soon changed and Ostia became a city of 150 acres where more than 50, 000 people lived. We'll enjoy the breathtaking views and aided by maps drawings and writings we'll explore the area: Roman theatre, Baths, public fountains, public latrine, barrack of Fire brigade, temples of different religions, the Forum (the centre of political life), square of the Corporations, the shops (butcher, bakery and mill, wine bar, fishmonger, laundry) the dwelling (House of Amor and Psyche, House of the Charioteer) More than 100 years of excavations rediscovered mosaics, frescoes, and amazing architecture. We will see a little and fabolus ancient Rome! Let's go!
