Sede di Roma: Maps & Atlases

Forma Urbis Romae
Lanciani, Rodolfo
-- Set of maps showing the excavations conducted by Lanciani, the head archaeologist for the city of Rome, first published from 1893-1901. These drawings document exactly where he excavated and what was found, practically stone by stone, with line drawings identifying ancient remains, in black, in relation to “modern” streets and buildings, shown in red, with blue lines representing planned changes from his day. In addition, the Danish website: Lanciani: Forma Urbis Romae which presents Lanciani’s maps online.
