We were in Rome in 1974. We would give anything to see Rome once again. The highpoint of our trip back then was Hadrian's Villa. I'm glad to see that so much work is being done. Rome still has treasures to be rediscovered once again. Amazing work!

Out of curiosity, what stops you.? We are visiting in December (after 7 years long absence for me) with my Mother whose mobility is not great. It will be a slower trip seeing fewer things than my previous 5 visits but that can be rewarding in itself. Budget for our 2 1/2 weeks in Europe (Germany for Christmas and Paris for Mew Years Eve) is $3700 for each person to go, lodge, eat, sightsee, move around by train and buy souvenirs and it’s not avoiding nice lodging or eating well. With planning it’s entirely doable. I hope you are able to visit. The things that stayed the same and the things that changed (my first trip was 30 years later than yours) would be fascinating!

I completely disagree. The importance of studying human history is a mostly modern phenomenon supported mostly by those in academia and to satisfy intellectual curiosities. It begs the question why much earlier generations lacked this focus and the answer is quite simple. History and it's study is a luxury of intellectual entertainment only that may be supported when excess wealth is created as has happened in modern history. I can personally affirm there is nothing I have learned from ancient or moden history that is particularly enlightening or beneficial for future human existence. Where or who should the financing come from to support such endeavors that will deliver value only to curiosity seekers and tourist market, i.e. entertainment . Would you finance this out of your personal fortune? I doubt it. We would be far better off transferring wasteful spending from unearthing or rebuilding the past to spending on engineering and science for the future. First and foremost that is cheap, abundant energy that drives the abundance of modern society is reaching a critical inflection point. Anyone who believes solar and wind are a path to future is delusional. Modern society has completely lost focus on what is truly important for future generations as a result of cult-like elites in academia. History is definitely not that critical component for our future. As the sayings goes "It is what it is" and the ways of past did not survive because they were simpl not that good to begin with unless you falsely romanticize it.

I love ancient history. So this was a great video on the ever-continuing excavation of ancient Rome. So far I've only been to Rome once (mid 90's) and I loved it. Certainly, I was enthralled by the 'Forum', to feel the ages disappear like a 'mist' and to know I was walking where the ancients had tread, from the humble citizen to emperors. These current excavations will only further unite our contemporary times to the days and peoples who lives were an intrinsic part of the great Roman experience, both the republican and emperial times. Good job.

Actually, only part of the colosseum was destroyed by earthquakes. After the fall of the Roman Empire much was pillaged, looted and materials reused. The reason why exactly half of the colosseum is still 'intact' is because it served as defensive wall from the highlands of the east (next to the Colosseum). Because after the Roman Empire, it was 'free for all' period, there was little protection left. I have a video tour with official tour guide that explains it all.

Furono fatte costruire dall'imperatore sul Piccolo Aventino tra il 212 e il 216 d.C. (come dimostrano i bolli laterizi[1]) in un'area adiacente al tratto iniziale della via Appia, circa 400 m al di fuori dell'antica porta Capena e poco a sud del venerato bosco delle Camene. Queste terme pubbliche furono le più imponenti mai edificate nell'Impero romano fino all'inaugurazione delle terme di Diocleziano (306). Servivano principalmente i residenti della I, II e XII regione augustea (tutta l'area compresa tra il Celio, l'Aventino e il Circo Massimo). " "Le terme romane di Bath furono costruite ai tempi dell'imperatore Vespasiano, nel 75 d.C., nella città allora chiamata Aquae Sulis. Pare infatti che in questa zona, fin dal 10000 a.C., dal sottosuolo fuoriuscisse acqua, ancor oggi visibile. Erano conosciute in tutto l'Impero romano e frequentate da gente di ogni classe sociale. Il complesso comprendeva anche un tempio dedicato a Sulis, antica dea celtica dell'acqua, e alla dea romana Minerva.

Going to Rome next month. Does one need tickets to get into Trajan's Forum, or is it open to anyone? Or is it connected to another path through one of the other sites? Looking for last-minute ideas...

The great new thing is to enter the Roman Forum THROUGH the new entrance at the Column of Trajan. You make your way from the Forum of Trajan to the Forum of Caesar, then into the Forum Romanum. A great way to go!

Good point! Relaunching @dariusarya in a couple of days- and new trailer! Will be a good pairing with the material on ARL - but also VERY different.

Why would they rebury the excavations?

Drowned during the universal mud flood . Rome was an important part of the old atlantis . Now sunk in the middle of the Mediterranean….

Wow, didn't know they cleared out so much ground around Trajan's Market. I see they tore down the nice little restaurant on the left facing side that had the green covering. Kinda sad, since I ate there when I visited, and would always see it as a touchstone from that trip.

why does the older buildings always get buried?

*Am I to understand that they were building newer structures directly on top of older structures?* How did the older structures, a whole neighborhood, get buried in the first place? Or was it just too much trouble to demolish older structures so they buried... no burying sounds like more work than demolishing. I need a time tunnel.

Why Reburry the area? And so hard to pick which to display. Like 3 different era in Rome 😅

I'm confused, so in ancient times people didn't demolish and remove old buildings they just... buried them and built on top of them? How is that practical?

I don't see the gatti Romani who live down in Largo Argentina. The cats who live down there are fed regularly, or at least were fed regularly, by the locals daily who would step down into the ruin. I hope they were humanely relocated or protected.

Every site mentioned - from the Colosseum to the Via Alessandrina section in front of the Markets of Trajan and the newly opened Museo Ninfeo- is easily located with a quick google/ google maps search.

7:40 I hate the combination of old buildings with modern architektur. The stair-square at 1:40 looks also too modern.

Understood - access to sites is key - you will always have modernity imposed in ancient sites. Example - new smooth paths and ramps in forum for wheelchair access are ways in which everyone can now experience the forum. We are all for it when it’s tastefully done- as visible in the forum.
