Dear followers, thanks for your feedback! I have one only request - please do not write comments about 'Rome was not white', 'it was brightly colored' etc. I have explained many times already, that these reconstructions already contain accurate colours according to the relevant researches. Rome was never painted in flashy colours, this is a new, now popular delusion. The colours were calm and applied sparingly. Thanks.

You’re exactly right. This viral bit of misinformation was launched in an oddly mocking one-off that proposed because some pigments were found in Roman marble that the Roman’s had no sense for gradients. This conclusion was absurdly spurious considering Roman achievements in arts and architecture as evident in extant mosaics and graffiti. Roman’s could carve the human form from stone with realistic precision but could only paint by the numbers? The shading in Roman mosaics is extraordinary. The fallacy was completely exposed by the beautifully painted statuary found in herculaneum, the head of the red haired woman.

I was born and grew up in Rome. So the ruins are part of the city and one's DNA. Some of them are bus stops. They just are , and you don't question them. But they are ruins. One doesn't often imagine the absolute glory and awe, that they must have inspired. What a traveler, who may have only heard of by a singing bard e.g., sees for the first time when coming to Rome. (Or also, the Mayan cities). Amazing reconstruction; although I got to say I am a bit lost. After the Colosseum, and (I think) Trajan's forum it got harder to tell. Havent been back in so long.

Imagine coming from somewhere where things were not as advanced and arrive / see Rome like this for the first time.... it leaves me breathless in present time! It must have been an incredible sense of awe and wonderment back then! I love Rome ... the only destination in the world I've visited over 10 x. An incredible accomplishment piecing it together like this 👏 thank you 💕

It’s the most incredible reconstruction of Ancient Rome that I’ve seen!!! Mostly because there are colors! We generally see just the white walls and reddish roofs, but here you made colorful statues, ornaments etc. It looked like a city, not like a model. Amazing job!

Quite true. Rome's legacy is worldwide, especially evident in the calendar and its alphabet, and also, by its descendants, a clock consisting of a rotation pointer and a circular array of numbers from 1 to 12. (Pope Gregory and his team, very likely descended of Rome, eliminated three leap-year days from every 400 years to produce what is essentially a perfect solar-year calendar.) Its engineering and architectural marvels are seen everywhere, and its tri-partite government during its Republican Era was at the basis of the three-branch government concept adopted in the US --- and possibly in other countries (?) as well.

It had to do with the personality of ancient romans and latins. Just thinj they were one of the smallest kingdom(and republic after)in Italy. Cisalpine gauls,samnites,etruscans,greeks, venetians all outnumbered romans but they managed to be the master.they learned with H humble from etruscans and greeks, fought gauls and samnites, learn how to sail while fighting carthago and use diplomacy with pragmatism . They were stubborn but open to learn from enemy, resolute on their goal and cynic enough to be the definite empire of the ancient world.
