Archaeology underneath Rome
#1
A lady from Rome was telling me they are working underneath the city at the level of Republican Rome. Apparently they do guided tours etc and she had heard it was incredible. It seems it all started when they had to shore up some church foundations and discovered what was below.

Does anyone have any information about this. My contact's English was poor, but there must be something on the net? I cannot believe I visited Rome last year and missed this!Quintus Sertorius
