After those views of Piazza Navona, here is what lies beneath- portions of the first story of the Domitianic stadium are visible on the north side - it once held 30K spectators - and gives the piazza its unique shape!

Do you know the Domitianic Arco Felice that created a shortcut from Puteoli to Cumae?? It’s still in use! @SaveRome

Dr Hannah Cornwell Found a Domitianic coin with an Altar of Peace, but with wrong bottom panels to be the A.P. Have you seen refs to a 2nd AP?

– Not so much an inscription, as the deliberate erasure of one! We’re off to the Late 1st century AD and a spot of Domitianic ‘damnatio memoriae’: The Puteoli Block, ca. AD 95-102.

They're called the Trophies of Marius, but were found at the Nymphaeum of Alexander Severus in Piazza Vittorio, and with a Domitianic era inscription! Read more about these pieces that now stand on the Capitoline at - buff.ly/2WXHHzK

Could Rome BE any more beautiful? Yesterday we spent all day walking through Rome and visiting Domitianic sites and other traces. It was very cool and super helpful to get a sense of space, scale, and relations between Julio-Claudian & Flavian things 😏😍

- A Domitianic era relief, ca. AD 90, showing the 'profectio' (setting out) of the Emperor, escorted by Mars, Minerva, and Roma. Domitian's head was subsequently re-worked as Nerva.

The Capitoline Trophies are Domitianic in age, were found on a Severan monument, and their name references the Republican general.

Another excellent piece of news: access between via Nova & Domitianic Ramp in the Forum is now open. More of the Forum accessible than ever!

Again, however, the numismatic evidence for its appearance is complicated, as on this Domitianic denarius of AD 95/6 the temple is hexastyle once again.

Props to Lindsey Davis for working into her narrative of the Domitianic period the recent archaeological discoveries that proved Nero’s revolving dinning room wasn’t where we all used to think it was. Made my day.

@carlosfnorena @DominikMaschek In terms of pizza, THE FLAVIAN PERIOD is a Calzone. It looks kinda bland and like half a serving on the menu, but is actually pretty rich. Connoisseurs appreciate its neat, contained shape. Watch out for the Domitianic jalapeños!

Between the 6th an 9th centuries, the eastern hall of the Domitianic complex functioned as the atrium of the church and continued to be used for two centuries after the church was abandoned due to the earthquake of 847.
