Fidenae
Fidenae was an ancient town of Latium vetus located about 8 km north of Rome on the Via Salaria. The archaeological site occupies a low hill (the arx) and its eastern slope and preserves remains of houses, a curia, cliffside tombs, and the location where a large temporary wooden amphitheatre once stood.

As it stood in AD 27
What Fidenae looked like in its prime.
A compact settlement clinging to a low tufa-capped hill above the Tiber valley and the Via Salaria. Densely packed stone and mudbrick houses with red terracotta roof tiles, wooden upperworks and narrow stepped alleys rise to a small arx at the summit. At the town’s edge a large temporary wooden amphitheatre of tiered scaffolding and canvas awnings fronts the road; carved stone civic buildings and scattered foundations line the main street, while cliffside rock-cut tombs punctuate the northern escarpment.
