Ancient Rome in Rome Today

As the center of the vast Ancient Roman Empire, the city of Rome developed as a thriving and monumental city, richly decorated and promoting the power of the Emperor. Walking the streets today, you still pass by many Roman ruins strewn throughout the city. Even more objects of art from the Roman Empire are preserved in the dozens of museums found in the city. This class will look at the history of Ancient Rome through the monuments that can still be found within the ancient walls.
