Campus Martius, Ancient terrain by Tiber River in Rome, Italy
The Campus Martius spans 490 acres along the Tiber River, featuring temples, theaters, and public spaces from different Roman periods.
After the expulsion of King Tarquinius Superbus in 509 BCE, this area became public land where Roman soldiers gathered before military campaigns.
The field transformed from a military training ground into a center of entertainment with the construction of the Theater of Pompey in 55 BCE.
The area contains numerous archaeological sites, connected by the Via Lata, which leads visitors through layers of Roman architectural history.
The field housed a massive sundial using an Egyptian obelisk as its gnomon, with bronze lines embedded in the marble pavement marking time.
