Description
A modernist interpretation Ostia Antica (Ancient Ostia) in Italy. Once the port of Rome, the city of Ostia sat at the mouth of the Tiber River, with archeological finds dating it to around the 4th century BC. It served as a naval base as well. By the 5th century AD it had declined in population and fell into disrepair. Now, Ostia's ruins have been preserved and are open to the public to view.
