The Ancient Defensive
Wall of Rome |
This is the entrance
to the city at Porta Ostiense The defensive wall encircled Imperial Rome |
Imagine defending the city from
here. The Pyramid tomb is visible just outside the wall |
Roman soldiers once patrolled
and fought from these defenses |
|
Mosaics and Christian symbols
decorate the interior |
|
Additional records of Christian
Rome. See Andy peaking through the opening in the wall |
|
This sturdy structure
protected the city for hundreds of years |
