About this book

The great archaeologist Rodolfo Lanciani explores the buried city beneath modern Rome, tracing how the pagan capital of the Caesars gave way to Christian Rome and how the two worlds overlapped in its monuments, catacombs, and ruins. Drawing on decades of excavation, he brings to life the temples, tombs, and everyday remains of the ancient city with the excitement of discovery. Learned yet vivid, the book is a fascinating guide to the layered history of the Eternal City. For lovers of Rome, archaeology, and antiquity, Pagan and Christian Rome offers an absorbing journey through the physical traces of two great ages of history.
