Tabularium, Archaeological site in Roman Forum, Rome, Italy.
The Tabularium spans across multiple levels with thick stone walls and features Doric columns along its grand facade overlooking the Roman Forum.
Built in 78 BCE under Sulla's direction, the Tabularium functioned as the central archive repository for official Roman state documents and bronze law tablets.
The building represents the importance Romans placed on documentation and administration, serving as the primary storage facility for governmental records and legal texts.
Modern visitors can access the Tabularium through the Capitoline Museums, where they can observe its ancient architecture and view the Roman Forum below.
The structure supports the modern Palazzo Senatorio, Rome's city hall, demonstrating continuous administrative use of the site for over 2000 years.
