It isn't clear to me that the Curia Pompei was accessible from what we call the Largo Argentina complex today. The Pompey's Theatre complex was completely separate.
@Romewise
@Romewise 10 ай бұрын
It does seem far-fetched until you see the models and also the renderings of where Pompey's theater was when it was in use in Ancient Rome. Then you can see how close it is to the temples we see in Largo Argentina today. Archeologists have confirmed that the ruins we see behind temple B are indeed from Pompey's theater. But you are right, they were completely separate structures and as I mentioned, had nothing to do with each other besides their proximity to each other.

You will love going in, and I assure you, you will see the cats around you as you go. :) Have a great time, and please come back and let me know here in the comments how you liked it after you go!

Thank You for posting this video, I have been to Rome twice and there is never enough time to take in all the sites. My favourite is the Roman Forum, I could spend a full day there just taking in all that history. My youngest Son (16) has asked us to take him this year as he loves our stories of the sites. We have been very lucky to also visit a few sites in Greece and my Son has been torn between both for a few years now. You have now added another must see site as anything relating to Julius just seems to pull me towards it. I appreciate the information you have given me and will pass on your page to others looking to go to Rome or to just have some information. Slàinte :}

The Roman Senate was convening in the Theatre of Pompey in 44 BCE because the senate house (Curia) was undergoing renovations after a fire. Caesar was going to depart for his campaign against the Parthians next day, so it was the last opportunity for the conspirators. According to lore he collapsed at the feet of the statue of Pompey, his great friend and enemy.

Hi, are you sure it's easy to get tickets just by going to the ticket office on the day for a 5 Euro ticket? I've seen that you can book online in advance but you have to state a time slot which isn't so easy. I've also seen a site charging 15 Euros though apparently it's an open ticket and not restricted to a time slot. We're visiting next week (first week in April) so it may be busy.

Honestly I have never seen a line here. Sometimes a big group will go in but in that case, they will have already bought tickets in advance. Most people don't fit this site into a typical 2-3 itinerary in Rome and it's not at the top of the must-see lists so I don't think you will have any trouble walking up and buying a 5€ ticket on the spot. Please note it's closed on Mondays.

You mention Pompey's theater remains behind temple B but isn't that officially Pompey's Curia? Perhaps it was part of the theater complex but it is noteworthy that Pompey's Curia was used by Ceasar because the Curia Julia was being renovated at the time of his assassination. They say there was so much turmoil after Caesar's death, that the Curia of Pompey did not survive.
@Romewise
@Romewise 26 күн бұрын
Pompey's theater was a large structure which contained the Curia of Pompey. That is correct, Caesar's Curia had been damaged by fire so they were all in Pomepy's Curia that day. And yes, Pompey's theater was closed up by Caesar's heir, Rome's first emperor, Octavian Augustus.

It is correct to use BCE and CE, as BC and AD were not even known at the time and were much later social constructs that came into being in the 6th century when a Roman Curia Monk with some power decided it was time to stop dating time from the era of Emperor Diocletian who persecuted christians and instead began dating time from the Year of the Lord.

@@Romewise Thank you for respecting my opinion. I recognize that the use of BCE and CE is your preference, gratefully not share by all historians. In referencing time what is BCE and CE actually based on? Obviously, it is still based on the traditional birth date of Christ. For the sake of inclusiveness and political correctness you eliminate Christ yet pinpoint historical events as occurring before or after his birth . This is extremely disingenuous and offensive to many Christians who view this as an attempt to cancel the significance of Christianity in western civilization. Why not use the Roman calendar or the Greek or Hebrew calendar? Because most people, including non-Christians, prefer and readily understand the meaning and significance of BC and AD. With all due respect, we will not be silent in any attempt to cancel us.

@@giovanniserafino1731 I absolutely agree with you that nobody should ever have their right to worship and to free speech cancelled. It's so important that we all have these rights. I am very grateful that you take the time to engage in thoughtful, civil discourse with me even though we disagree.

Wow! It's HER video. She can use the terms she chooses. You do your video and you can use BC and AD. How's that for a solution?
