While Europe is home to many impressive plazas, none can match the Forum in Rome. The Forum, originally known as Forum Romanum, was the center of the social and political scene in Rome. Although only its ruins remain today, in its prime, it consisted of the Roman senate, temples, markets, and arches. Moreover, the Forum was the place where speeches, executions, trials, fights, and even elections happened. It was witness to some of the most important events in Roman history.

The Forum is located in a small valley between the Palatine and Capitoline Hills. Although it was the heart of Rome, the valley was already in use in the Bronze Age. Pre-Roman people probably used this valley as a cemetery and various potteries were discovered during archeological excavations. In addition, the excavations also revealed some offerings indicating that the valley was also a place of worship for religious cults. All in all, these findings made it obvious that the Forum’s location was always popular among the people who lived in the area.
