According to the legend, Ancus Marcius king of Rome, founded Ostia in 620 BC as a crucial spot to make use of the salt pans at the mouth of the Tiber.
The oldest archaeological remains however, date back much later, to the second half of the 4th century BC, and belong to an armed camp (Lat. castrum) built in tufa blocks: it was built by roman settlers to protect the river’s mouth and the Lazio coast.
The European Commission awarded the European Heritage Label to Archaeological Area of Ostia antica
With Rome’s expansion it came to control all Mediterranean trade routes (2nd century BC), and Ostia lost its military role in order to become Rome’s major port and trading center (Lat. emporium).
In our tour we will discover this amazing site, out of usual Roman touristic tracks, and we will have also an archaelogical “dig” experience. 2h of simulated excavation led by professional archaelogists.
