These members are distinguishable, for examples, by means of using different types of architectural members or of sculpturing the newly inserted parts plane unlike the original ones with detailed ornaments. According to the Venice Charter―the international guidelines on the restorations of monuments and sites―, it regards the former material as a respectable 1 element to achieve the intervention goalP0F .P The genuine also has an important role; it is one of information sources to evaluate the authenticity of UNESCO World Cultural Heritage sites. These roles testify values of original materials in Europe where many historical buildings contain durable materials such as stone and bricks. In order to comprehend their importance historically, this dissertation deals with following steps until the restoration measure became the global method. -

Three Main Groups of People Settled on Or Near the Italian Peninsula and Influenced Roman Civilization
Three main groups of people settled on or near the Italian peninsula and influenced Roman civilization. The Latins settled west of the Apennine Mountains and south of the Tiber River around 1000 B.C.E. While there were many advantages to their location near the river, frequent flooding also created problems. The Latin’s’ settlements were small villages built on the “Seven Hills of Rome”. These settlements were known as Latium. The people were farmers and raised livestock. They spoke their own language which became known as Latin. Eventually groups of these people united and formed the city of Rome. Latin became its official language. The Etruscans About 400 years later, another group of people, the Etruscans, settled west of the Apennines just north of the Tiber River. Archaeologists believe that these people came from the eastern Mediterranean region known as Asia Minor (present day Turkey). By 600 B.C.E., the Etruscans ruled much of northern and central Italy, including the town of Rome. The Etruscans were excellent builders and engineers. Two important structures the Romans adapted from the Etruscans were the arch and the cuniculus. The Etruscan arch rested on two pillars that supported a half circle of wedge-shaped stones. The keystone, or center stone, held the other stones in place. A cuniculus was a long underground trench. Vertical shafts connected it to the ground above. Etruscans used these trenches to irrigate land, drain swamps, and to carry water to their cities. The Romans adapted both of these structures and in time became better engineers than the Etruscans. -

This collaborative research effort is called the Rome Reborn Project in honor of the first systematic study of Roman topography, Flavio Biondo's mid-fifteenth century Roma Instaurata (de Grummond 1996: 160-61). Since January, 1998 the project has been housed in the UCLA Cultural VR Lab, which was created with support from Intel, the Creative Kids Education Foundation, Mr. Kirk Mathews, the UCLA Division of Humanities, the UCLA Humanities Computing Facility, the UCLA Center for Digital Innovation, the UCLA Graduate Division, the UCLA Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research, and the UCLA College of Letters and Science. The Lab's mission is to provide technology support for projects like Rome Reborn that strive to recreate authenticated three-dimensional computer models of sites of great historic and cultural interest around the world. -

Religion and Culture in Ancient Rome
SOCIAL FORMATIONS AND CULTURAL PATTERNS OF THE MEDIEVAL WORLD TDC 2ND SEMESTER (MAJOR) CBCS CHAP.IV (RELIGION AND CULTURE IN ANCIENT ROME) BY : DR. BIMAN HAZARIKA HO.D & ASSOCATE PROF., DEPT.OF HISTORY DHING COLLEGE 04-05-2020 [WEBSITE AND CONTACT DETAILS] RELIGION AND CULTURE IN ANCIENT ROME : Augustus brought to an end of the Roman Republic Republic. He had estblioshed unity and good government which the Mediterranean world had never known before. For the protecytion of the frontier of his country he made legions composed of Roman citizens and also auxiliary forces composed of men from the provinces. He took special care to protect the frontier on the Rhine and the Danube to check the incursions of the Barbarians. Reforms: Important reforms were introduced in the government to make it more efficient. He established an imp[erail civil service. It included the government officials chosen mostly from the misddle class and these officials were paid by the state. In the inner provinces senators wer allowed to stay on as governors.They were paid salaries and were under the personal supervision of Augustus so that they were not able to overtax the people for ttheir personal gains. Owing to peace and good government, the whole of Mediterranean which had become just like Roman lake, was having thousands sailining across it.There was flowing a brisk trade throughout the empire. As the ruins of Pompi and other cities show, they were full of wealth and prosperity. Age of Augustus why its called Golden Age ? Like Periclean age in ancient Greece the Augustan age in the Roman empire called a golden age because it was characteriseed by conditions of peace and prosperity.and development of artand literature.Virgil, Aeoneid Hoarce were well known literary figure for their lyrics. -
HERODIAN ENTERTAINMENT STRUCTURES Joseph Patrich Josephus Concludes the Description of the Dedication Feast of Caesarea, Held In
HERODIAN ENTERTAINMENT STRUCTURES Joseph Patrich Abstract Entertainment structures constituted a signifi cant part of the Herodian building projects in Herod’s kingdom and beyond, serving his internal and external political interests. They were an important means for disseminating Greco-Roman culture, and enhancing Herod’s reputation as patron of arts and agonistics. According to Josephus, theatres were built in Jerusalem, Jericho, Caesarea, Sidon and Damascus; amphithe- atres/hippodromes in Jerusalem, Jericho, and Caesarea. Gymnasia were constructed only outside his realm, in Tripolis, Damascus and Ptolemais, and in Cos he set a yearly endowment for the gymnasiarch. In year 12 BCE, as a reward for his munifi cence in providing funds for the Olympic Games, Herod was awarded the title of perpetual president (agônothetês) of the games. In the private sphere his palaces were provided with swimming pools ( Jericho, Hyrcania, Masada), and sailing pools ( Jericho, Herodium). The remains of Herodian theatres and amphitheatres are examined here. Those at Caesarea (both inaugurated in year 10 BCE) still survive. Other extant structures, like the stadium at Samaria/Sebaste, or the Herodium course, not mentioned by Josephus, are attributed to him by archaeologists. The theatre of Caesarea, stone-built, was of the Roman type; that built earlier in Jerusalem (before 28 BCE), is believed to have been a wooden structure, following the practice prevalent at Rome at that time. Herod’s stone-built “amphitheatre” at Caesarea was a multi-purpose entertainment stadium. It was provided with starting-gates (carceres) to accommodate chariot races (hippika), in addition to the regular athletics ( gymnika). Hence the term hippo-stadium has been coined to designate this type of stadium. -

1 the Festivals Lupercalia, Saturnalia, and Lemuria Were Three of Rome's
1 The festivals Lupercalia, Saturnalia, and Lemuria were three of Rome’s most important celebrations. Each were valuable to the empire, as they celebrated the gods that acted as the stitches of Rome that pulled the diverse parts of the land together. The festivals also dealt with the spirits that were thought to haunt the city, whether it was to dispel them or celebrate their memory. This trio of festivals impacted the development of Rome’s culture and influenced holidays celebrated today. Most importantly, though, while Lupercalia, Saturnalia, and Lemuria each honored various gods and had differing rituals, all of them helped to shape Rome into a dominant empire. Lupercalia is one of the oldest Roman festivals, meant to celebrate love, to purify the city from evil spirits, and to aid with fertility. Celebrated from the thirteenth of February to the fifteenth, Lupercalia dates possibly to before Rome was established as a city. Because it is celebrated to honor the shewolf who nursed Romulus and Remus, the twin founders of Rome, the festival’s name derives from the Latin word for wolf, “lupus” and translates to “wolf festival.” The festival has a number of rites to be performed. The priestly Luperci, who were considered to be brothers of wolves, took command of those rites. The Luperci would only wear goatskins during the festival. There were three sectors of Luperci: the Quinctiliani, the Fabiani, and the Julii (who were created in honor of Julius Caesar). Directed by the Luperci, the festival began with the sacrifice of two male goats and one dog.
