Palace of Domitian, Imperial palace ruins on Palatine Hill, Rome, Italy.
The Palace of Domitian contains three main sections: the Domus Flavia for public functions, the Domus Augustana for private quarters, and a garden stadium area.
Emperor Domitian commissioned architect Rabirius to construct this official imperial residence between 81 and 92 AD, incorporating elements from earlier structures including Nero's Domus Transitoria.
The palace design reflected Roman social hierarchy by maintaining separate spaces for governmental affairs and personal activities, enabling simultaneous operations without interference.
The archaeological remains of the palace complex span approximately 200 meters on each side, providing views of both the Roman Forum and Circus Maximus.
The palace water system connected directly to the Claudian aqueduct near the Hippodrome, enabling numerous fountains that created cooling air currents throughout the buildings.
