Think of Rome and you quickly picture so many treasures from the
ancient world: the Colosseum, the Circus Maximus, the Pantheon, the
Forum. At its height in the 2nd century CE, the Roman Empire,
reaching out from its heart in the city of Rome itself, was the
most extensive political and social structure in western
civilization. Still today, almost 2000 years later, we marvel at
how sophisticated and grand Roman society was - and how much of
ancient Rome has survived for us to see in the modern Italian
metropolis. From public baths to catacombs, from the Appian Way to
small frescoes and sculptures, from temples to private houses to
aqueducts, Visual Explorer Guide: Ancient Rome shows the reader
both the world famous and lesser known sites in the city. What
emerges is both a picture of the grandeur of Antiquity, but also
the last days of pagan worships, as by Rome's final days temples
were being converted into churches. Small enough to pack in your
pocket, Ancient Rome is a fascinating exploration that gives the
reader more than a glimpse of the grandeur of ancient Roman life.
