In 2007 excavation in the south-eastern sector of the forum recommenced and the western sector (where a single trench had been dug in 1980) was extended. In the south-eastern sector, in an area covering about 216 m2, a complex of structures measuring 10 × 18 m, was uncovered. To the west it faced onto the line of the via Orientale, and developed on a north-east alignment. The structure was seen to be divided into four rooms: – Room V, 4.10 × 8 m, with an internal doorway to the east of room AA and a probable service entrance on the west side. – Room AA, probably 4.45 × 9.0 m, allowing about 2.50 m back from the edge of the road. It was linked to the west with room V, to the south with room AC. – Room AB, about 2.60 m x 4.40, accessed through room AC. – Room AC, 4.40 × 15.0 m, also allowing at least 2.50 m from the road edge.

At the beginning of the excavation the ground surface was not level but gradually sloped downwards from west to east, where the effects of old surface activity had caused greater damage to the ancient structures below. On this side the preservation of the structures was minimal, the walls to the east of rooms AA and AC had not survived. Over time the surface of this area had become the site of a substantial accumulation of stones. Overall the rooms seemed to belong to a single property as they were all connected. The shape and size of room AC finds parallels in storage structures or those for housing animals. In some points the structures overlay earlier walls. Therefore, in the monumental centre of the town changes were already taking place in the late 2nd century A.D., perhaps due to the traumas produced by an earthquake which struck the central Apennines in the mid 2nd century A.D.

The investigations undertaken in the western sector of the forum (Area 3) immediately produced interesting results with the exposure of a large rectangular room, two square rooms and a large entrance hall with an impluvium.

The first room, on a north-south alignment, housed a production installation that was probably already in use during the mid-Imperial period. In particular, three dolia, still in situ, and part of the circular masonry base from below the millstone were preserved. The base was probably about 2.50 m in diameter but had been heavily damaged by agricultural machinery. The three dolia were aligned up against the south wall; two were sunken into an opus signinum floor and had no rims which had been broken by the ploughing that until recently had taken place on the site. The third dolium appeared free of the opus signinum and had broken edges, perhaps caused by an attempt to substitute the container or by the collapse of the floor itself under the weight of the detritus which surrounded it.

To date the excavation has uncovered levels of fill and structures dated by a number of coins to within the 4th century A.D. The find of part of an impluvium in the entrance suggests the existence in this part of the town of Iuvanum, at the centre and abutting the administrative buildings, of a domus that was radically altered in the late antique period, the moment when the settlement and economic structures of the Roman world greatly changed giving life to a new social order.
