Summary (English)

  • The area under investigation is an integral part of the archaeological complex known as the Forum Boarium, and forms the natural southward continuation of the area of Sant’Omobono. During this study, the walls were re-examined and an up to date plan was made that highlighted the importance of this context, providing adequate graphic documentation and new photographs. Excavations undertaken in area O documented the existence of a workshop for metalworking, an activity that although documented needs further investigation. The same can be said for the presence of a room of the same date in area E.
