The gradual emergence 9. splen- dJid remains of “Roman Kome' from a coating of debris sometimes 30 feet deep collected during 2,000 vears of neglect, has been accom- panied by the destruction of many dpeets and scores of houses con- structed in more recent times, con- stituting the most squalid sections of the city. Digging into the forum of Augus- tus, which now is entirely free of encumbrances, produced the base- ment of the Marte Vendicators Temple, parts of two triumphal srches, part of a G50-foot colloss statue, rooms spledidly decorated in marble, and » mediacval castle, as well as innumerable fragments of mosaics and statues, Similar finds were made at Ne and Trajan forums where excavations are con- tinuing. v Difficultics have been overcom: in probing into the Augustan mau- soleum which lies under Rome' principal concert hall. thereby me- cessitating the restriction of areh- ological activities to su: r sea- ons when there are no con The most ambitious work thus ar has been the restoration of the Marcellus er which when fin- hed—it is mitted will take nany years—uwill vie in impress loss with the Coliseum. A lar; ction of the old Ghetto, full of angled, narrow streets, which has wen one of the eye-sores of mod- rn Rome, has been torn down Juring the past year in order to re- lcase the magnificent playhouse built by Caesar and Augustus, In a labyrinth, recking with pud- iles, have been found several well preserved Roman remains, such s a portico of the well of Octavus ind a number of early mediaeval houses, which wiil be left standing. Thousands of tons of debris have been removed from the theater permitting entrance to several care- fully constructed gallerics as s the stage. The task of digging out the theater is particularly diffi ult because of the desire not to ndanger the Savelli-Orsini pal hich was c tructed upon it in of the Fifteent] 5 is too rich in rtstic treasures to be destroyed. Work next year will be conduct- <1 on the Circus Maxims, the rum of Olitorium and the ancient Curia, one of the finest buildings in the neighborhood of the Roman Forum.
