On Fortune’s Doorstep: A New Republican Temple on Quirinal Hill in Rome
With Professor John North Hopkins, presented in collaboration with the Archaeological Institute of America’s New York Society
The Quirinal Hill is currently the focus of an archaeological and archival project that documents over 2,500 years of history from circa 600 BCE through the present day. The site is characterized by the remains of one of Rome’s earliest monumental domestic structures, part of Rome’s urban circuit wall (the largest such ancient fortification in the Western Mediterranean), a Republican-era sanctuary, and a portion of the Imperial-era Horti Sallustiani. Professor John North Hopkins, presented in collaboration with the Archaeological Institute of America’s New York Society, explains how the construction of a new temple during the second century BCE contributed to an urban renovation at the edge of the expanding Imperial metropolis.
