AIAC_996 - Via Veneto - 2006Between July and October 2006 work for the urban restructuring of the stretch of Via Veneto between Largo Fellini and Via Boncompagni brought to light the remains of some Roman buildings relating to a peripheral area of the horti Sallustiani. The archaeological layers identified were found at increasingly superficial levels at the start of Via Veneto, whilst in the direction of Via Boncompagni the ancient stratigraphy was rarely reached. The structures, found in several places immediately below the make up for the modern paving, belonged to a series of rooms mostly on a north-south alignment which can be directly related to the structures already noted by Lanciani in the Forma Urbis. The construction phases seem to tie in with those already known in the area. The first, a late Republican phase with facings in opus reticulatum of tufa cubilia, linked directly to the first layout of the horti Sallustiani. Subsequently, the level on which the new walls with opus latericius facings were positioned was raised, often by the use of loose foundations of amphora which characterise finds in this area. These walls which may relate to the Hadrianic restructuring and later remodelling in the Severan period.The new walls follow the line of the earlier structures, preserving their alignment and room layout. Lastly, a short tract of paving which re-used the tufa cubilia from the Roman walls may relate to the Villa Ludovisi. (Mariarosaria Barbera, Gloria Adinolfi, Rodolfo Carmagnola)

Nel periodo compreso tra luglio e ottobre 2006 i lavori di riqualificazione urbana del tratto di Via Veneto tra Largo Fellini e Via Boncompagni hanno messo in luce alcuni resti di edifici di età romana, pertinenti ad un’area periferica degli Horti Sallustiani.
I livelli archeologici evidenziati si rinvengono a quote progressivamente più superficiali nella parte iniziale di via Veneto, mentre in direzione di via Boncompagni raramente è stata raggiunta la quota delle stratigrafie antiche.
Le strutture, evidenziate in più punti immediatamente al di sotto della preparazione della pavimentazione moderna, appartengono ad una serie di ambienti generalmente con orientamento N-S in diretta relazione con strutture già segnalate dal Lanciani nella _Forma Urbis_.
Le fasi edilizie sembrano corrispondere a quelle già note nell’area: una fase di età tardo-repubblicana con paramenti in opera reticolata di cubilia di tufo, legata direttamente al primo impianto degli Horti Sallustiani. E un successivo innalzamento della quota di imposta delle nuove murature, con paramenti in opera laterizia, spesso mediante vespai di anfore che caratterizzano i rinvenimenti in quest’area riferibile forse ai rifacimenti alle ristrutturazioni adrianee e ai successivi rifacimenti di età severiana. Le nuove murature, ricalcano le strutture preesistenti, conservandone l’orientamento e le articolazioni degli ambienti.
Infine, alla fase della Villa Ludovisi si riferisce forse un breve tratto di pavimentazione che riutilizza _cubilia_ di tufo delle murature romane.
