Aternum, Archaeological site near Pescara, Italy.
The remains of Aternum reveal multiple structures along the Aternus River, including temple foundations and trading port infrastructure from Roman times.
Founded before the 4th century BC, Aternum developed into a major Roman settlement connecting inland regions to coastal areas through the Via Tiburtina.
The Temple of Jovis Aternium served as the central religious structure where Romans conducted ceremonies and maintained connections with their deities.
Visitors can examine the excavated sections of the ancient city through guided tours that explain the architectural elements and recovered artifacts.
The construction of a monumental bridge by Emperor Tiberius marked the settlement's strategic position at the intersection of land and maritime trade routes.
