Ancient sacred complex said to have been where Julius Caesar assassinated in 44BC can be viewed after development project
An ancient temple complex in the centre of the Italian capital where, according to legend, Julius Caesar was assassinated, was opened to the public for the first time on Tuesday.
The “sacred area” at Largo Argentina square, which until now could only be viewed from street level, contains four temples dating back to the third century BC, as well as the remains of Pompey’s theatre, where the Roman dictator was believed to have been stabbed to death by disgruntled senators in 44BC.
