Home Forum Empire Government ... Late Republic Founding of Rome Much of what we know today about the historical foundations of Rome comes to us from ancient writers such as Livy and Herodotus, along with the findings of archeology. The early history of Rome, so deeply rooted in legend and mythology, is a mix of fact, fiction, educated guesses and established notions on the conditions of the ancient Mediterranean world. The earliest evidence of human habitation in the Latium region which included the city of Rome, dates from the Bronze Age (c.1500 BC), but the earliest established, and permanent, settlements began to form in the 8th century BC. At that time archeology indicates two closely related peoples in the area, the Latins and Sabines. These agrarian Italic peoples were tribal in origin, with a social hierarchy that dominated Rome’s early form of government and throughout its claim to power in the region. The date of the founding as a village or series of tribal territories is uncertain, but the traditional and legendary founding of the city dates to 753 BC. Although this date is heavily laden in myth, it is at least roughly supported through archeological evidence. It was in the 8th century BC that two existing settlements, one on the Palatine Hill, the other on the Quirinal, combined to form a single village, corresponding to the same dates as the legend. According to legend, Romans trace their origins to Aeneas, a Trojan who escaped the sack of Troy by fleeing to Italy. The son Aeneas, Iulius (commonly Julius) founded the city of Alba Longa establishing a monarchy. Two descendents of the Alba Longa Kings, the twin brothers

7. Archeology Roman Period THE TEMPLE The roman empire knew many religions and religious customs. Good roads and safe inns were essential for proper communication in the roman empire. http://www.archeon.nl/lang_uk/park_rom.htm

THE ROMAN PERIOD Around 55 BC the first Roman armies, under the command of Julius Caesar, arrive in these parts. The territories of the Germanic and Celtic tribes who live here are conquered and the inhabitants submitted. The first Roman Emperor, Augustus, tries to extend the Roman territory as far as the River Elbe, but he fails. After the crushing defeat of two Roman legions east of the River Rhine, the Emperor Claudius abandons the plan to conquer the Germans as far as the Elbe and decides to make the Rhine the official border of the empire. Along the Rhine a series of forts are built, connected by a border road: the 'limes'. The arrival of the Romans changes the way of life of the native people completely. A Roman form of administration is introduced, commerce flourishes and an extensive road system is constructed. The native people seem to be able to adopt the customs of daily Roman life. The Romans founded their towns in conveniently situated places, such as at the crossroads of trade routes, near important rivers or at native places of worship. In Archeon a small Roman town has been reconstructed: Traiectum ad Rhenum ('TAR', crossing place at the Rhine). In TAR we find: a potter's house, a small temple, a public bathhouse, a Roman inn and an amphitheatre.

THE MIDDLE AGES In 476 the Roman Empire was dissolved. By then most Roman legions had already left this part of the Empire. With them disappeared the system of roads, forts and towns and probably also a large part of the population, as many people were economically dependent on the Roman armies. Around the year AD 1000 living conditions improved. The nobility and the church encouraged the reclamation of vast peat bogs. This enabled the people to cultivate more food, which had to be sold, with the result that markets appeared. In Archeon the mediaeval town of Gravendam gives an impression of a typical small town in the west of the Netherlands around the year 1350. The earliest period in Archeon is represented by a small, characteristic house from the town of 'Dorestad' (present-day Wijk-bij-Duurstede). Built on the ruins of a Roman fort near the River Rhine, the small town of Dorestad was an important port of transshipment and commerce. In the 11th century Dorestad was raided by the Vikings. The rest of the Middle Ages (900 - 1350) can be found in the Mediaeval town of 'Gravendam' (the Count's Dam). The oldest houses are the huts: small houses, partly dug into the ground. Some of the other 'older' houses in the town are: the fisherman's cottage, the cooper's house, the turner's house, a smithy and a stable. The latter two have been built with old timber beams from the North of France.

ZEUGMA Update (15.5.00) There has been a tragedy and a second is in progress. Location of Zeugma - Samosata lies 75 km away to the north-east. More important, the flood waters were lapping over the fields beneath which lay the remains of the ancient city of Samosata. The city had been the capital of allied kings of the Roman Empire one of whom, Antiochus IV, was described as a man "who had inherited great wealth and was the richest client-king of all" (Tacitus Hist 2.81.1). In the first century AD, the kingdom was annexed by Rome to the province of Syria, the city flourished as a frontier town of the Roman Empire, and an entire legion of 5000 soldiers was placed there. Written sources provided occasional insights at various points during its subsequent history but the flesh for these bones was to be found within the town wall circuit of 5 km enclosing some 250 ha/ 600 acres, and beyond it in the remains of the ancient villages, farms, aqueducts, quarries and roads of its hinterland. A number of Turkish and foreign teams did carry out surveys and excavations, but for so large an area it was modest. None of the foreign institutes undertook any major project at Samosata itself which was left to the valiant but limited resources of Turkish archaeologists. Today it is all under a deep and vast lake - readers might look at the superb aerial view by Ed Kashi of the lake where once it stood (

Costume Goddess Roman Empire Tour: Athens, Greece The Temple of Olympian Zeus If Athens deserved its widely broadcast reputation as a dirty, congested, dangerous, overpriced mega-tropolis, we couldn't see much evidence for it. We loved Athens! One month after 9/11, it was clear that the Greeks were hurting from the lack of American tourists. Restaurant owners, merchants, and travel agents were literally standing outside their establishments and urging us inside. Thus we allowed one agency, five minutes after we got off the train, to set up a hotel stay for us, although we thought we could find one on our own. We declined their suggestions for island-hopping cruises, since we only had three days to spend on a island and wanted to stay in one place. View from the Hotel The modest hotel was near the train station, a pleasant non-touristed neighborhood. We surveyed the oh-so-breathtaking view from the 5th floor: the backside of apartment buildings, tons of laundry hung out on balconies hundreds of TV antennas sticking up. Then we turned our eyes to the left and there it was:
