  • Cover photo description:
  • The porticoes of the Villa of Maxentius on the Appian Way in Rome, Italy. The complex of buildings composing the villa was erected by emperor Maxentius between AD 306 and 312 between the second and third miles of the Via Appia near the basilica and catacombs of San Sebastiano and the imposing late republican tomb of Caecilia Metella. Within the porticoes rises the so called Mausoleum of Valerius Romulus, also Marcus Aurelius Romulus died 309, a familial tomb, surely intended for Maxentius himself whilst still alive and that received as its occupant Maxentius` only son. The complex was probably never used after the death of Maxentius in AD 312. The modern-day visitor enters the archeological area from the west end, where the remains of the circus are located. The admission is free.
