Caesaraugusta, Roman colonia in Hispania Tarraconensis, Spain
The settlement extended along the Ebro River with a grid pattern layout, featuring two main streets that intersected at the central forum point.
Founded in 14 BCE under Emperor Augustus, the city received special privileges including the right to mint coins and exemption from imperial taxation.
The archaeological remains reveal advanced urban elements including a theater, public baths, marketplaces, and residential areas with intricate mosaic decorations.
Four museums in modern Zaragoza display the Roman structures: the forum, river port, public baths, and theater, each showcasing different aspects of daily life.
The drainage system incorporated innovative flood prevention mechanisms with elevated platforms and water channels to manage the frequent Ebro River floods.
