Summary (English)
The site at Fregellae is well known from historical sources, as a Roman Republican town destroyed in the late 1st century BC. It has been investigated through excavation in certain areas, resulting in the discovery of both public and private buildings. The geophysical and topographical survey carried out for this project, was designed to provide a broader picture of the site, to be integrated with previous findings. The results so far have been good, showing the forum, comitium and curia (already known in part through excavation), as well as buildings surrounding the forum, and towards the area where the town wall is thought to have existed. Future work will aim to extend this knowledge of the layout and organization of the Roman town.
