Horti Tauriani, Archaeological site on Esquiline Hill, Rome, Italy.
The excavated remains of Horti Tauriani contain ancient structures, statues, and decorative elements from an extensive Roman garden complex.
The gardens belonged to Statilius Taurus until 53 AD when Agrippina orchestrated his downfall to seize the property for imperial estates.
The discovery of marble craters, portraits of Hadrian, Sabina, and Matidia within the site reflects the artistic preferences of Roman nobility.
Researchers and archaeologists continue excavation work at the site, uncovering new artifacts that provide information about Roman garden design.
The gardens underwent multiple divisions and reunifications, becoming the Horti Pallantiani, Horti Epaphroditiani, and later merging with Horti Liciniani.
