Great article in the NY Times about Rome's Forum and Palatine Hill and how recently there will be more access given to some of the lost treasures of the city. This new initiative hopes to bring to life the mystery of the forgotten monuments and buildings of the ancient Romans. From the House of Livia (the wife of Augustus, Emperor of Rome, adopted son of Caesar) to the Loggia Mattei which was built in the 16th century, first time tourist and veterans of Rome alike, will get to rediscover Rome all over again.
