Title A name given to the resource Nero's Golden House (Domus Aurea) Description An account of the resource Location: Rome Date: 64-68 AD Details: The Domus Aurea was a large park-and-residence palace built by the emperor Nero on the Oppian Hill. The building was constructed largely in the area destroyed in the "Great Fire" (AD 64), and included groves, vineyards, and an artificial lake. The buildings themselves were decked out in marble, jewels, and ivory, though the palace may have been called "Golden" because it was designed to let in maximum sunlight--which in turn would play off the shining marble and painted walls. Nero was declared a public enemy and committed suicide in 68. In subsequent years, his successors covered over most of the palace grounds. Most notably, the emperor Vespasian drained the artificial lake to build Colosseum (which took its name from a Colossal statue of Nero on the grounds), while Trajan used many of the structures as foundations for his massive bath complex. The palace was rediscovered in the 15th century, and many renaissance artists--including such luminaries as Raphael and Michelangelo--visited it to study the surviving paintings.

Title A name given to the resource Basilica of Santa Maria in Trastevere Description An account of the resource Location: Rome Date: Most of the present church was built in 1140-1143 by Pope Innocent II atop a fourth century basilica (which in turn went back to a third century house-church).

The seven figures around Christ's throne are identified by labels, from left to right, as Pope Innocent II (who refounded the church in the 12th century); St. Lawrence; Pope St. Callixtus; St. Peter; Pope St. Cornelius; Pope St. Julius (who constructed the 4th century church); and St. Calepodius.

Title A name given to the resource Paestum Archaeological Site & Museum Description An account of the resource Poseidonia (later known as Paestum) was established around 600 BC by colonists from Sybaris, an older Greek colony on the south Italian coast. The town seems to have flourished in the intervening centuries, judging from its significant architectural remains--most famously its three large temples, of which impressive ruins survive. By 400 BC the city had taken on a large number of Lucanians, an Italian people from the surrounding region that spoke an Oscan language. While ancient authors like Strabo (and many modern authors) depict this as a Lucanian "conquest" or "occupation," most scholars now posit that the two cultures existed side-by-side, producing new, blended traditions (as seen in e.g. their tomb paintings). From 280-275 BC, the city sided with Pyrrhus of Epirus, a warrior-king who invaded from the Greek east, in his war against Rome. The Romans were ultimately victorious, and Poseidonia/Paestum became the site of a Roman colony in 273 BC. As a Roman colony, the civic architecture significantly changed to fall more in line with Roman models, pointing to the power and influence of the new Roman colonists. The city remained inhabited well into the Roman imperial period and into the early middle ages, though it was gradually abandoned by the seventh century.

Title A name given to the resource Tomb of the Diver Description An account of the resource Location: National Archaeological Museum of Paestum <br />Date: 480-470 BC <br />Details: The so-called Tomb of the Diver was discovered about a mile (1.5 km) south of the ruins of Paestum. The tomb consisted of a chamber built from five stone slabs--one for each of the walls and one for the roof--and covered with plaster. They feature one of the earliest and best preserved examples of Greek monumental painting. <br /><br />The walls of the tomb depict a symposium, an important social gathering for aristocrats in ancient Greek communities. Participants at symposia would recline together on couches after a meal to enjoy drinking, poetry, music, and conversation. One of the men portrayed in this tomb holds a lyre--an instrument which was used to accompany lyric poetry--and a lyre was one of the grave goods in this tomb. The symposium scene clearly connects the tomb's occupant to the elite, male culture that was prevalent across the Greek world in this period. <br /><br />On the other hand, the tomb equally indicates connections to Italian cultural traditions. The covering slab features the painting of the eponymous diver, after whom the tomb is named. It may symbolize the diver metaphorically "diving" into the afterlife, transitioning from life to death, paralleling scenes in Etruscan art (e.g. the diver scene in the Tomb of Hunting and Fishing). It has also been argued that the local inhabitant was of Italian origin, thus attesting to the cross-cultural contact that characterized Paestum (Greek Poseidonia) from an early date. <br /><br />Further reading:  <br />Beaulieu, M.-C. 2016. <em>The Sea in the Greek Imagination</em>.

Title A name given to the resource South Italian Bronze Helmet, Triple-Disc Cuirass, Greaves - Gaudo Tomb 164 Subject The topic of the resource Location: National Archaeological Museum of Paestum Date: Early Fourth Century BC Details: As the south Italian (Lucanian) population of Paestum grew, there is a noticeable shift in the use and typology of grave goods. Whereas earlier graves had included one or two vases and a few other items--largely typical of western Greek burial practice--many graves in the fourth and third century are more richly stocked and clearly point to Italic influences. Wealthier female graves often contain amber jewelry of Italic origin as well as sets of iron fibulae (brooches). Male tombs, on the other hand, often feature the inclusion of weapons and armor. The bronze armor featured here is typical of southern Italy in the fourth century, most notably in the so-called "triple-disc" cuirass and helmet with feather-plumes. They suggest that the tomb's occupant (or his family) was of at least some status, and point to the martial identity expected of young men throughout fourth century Italy.

Title A name given to the resource Paestum Archaeological Site & Museum Description An account of the resource Poseidonia (later known as Paestum) was established around 600 BC by colonists from Sybaris, an older Greek colony on the south Italian coast. The town seems to have flourished in the intervening centuries, judging from its significant architectural remains--most famously its three large temples, of which impressive ruins survive. By 400 BC the city had taken on a large number of Lucanians, an Italian people from the surrounding region that spoke an Oscan language. While ancient authors like Strabo (and many modern authors) depict this as a Lucanian "conquest" or "occupation," most scholars now posit that the two cultures existed side-by-side, producing new, blended traditions (as seen in e.g. their tomb paintings). From 280-275 BC, the city sided with Pyrrhus of Epirus, a warrior-king who invaded from the Greek east, in his war against Rome. The Romans were ultimately victorious, and Poseidonia/Paestum became the site of a Roman colony in 273 BC. As a Roman colony, the civic architecture significantly changed to fall more in line with Roman models, pointing to the power and influence of the new Roman colonists. The city remained inhabited well into the Roman imperial period and into the early middle ages, though it was gradually abandoned by the seventh century.
