  • Des mosaïques antiques ont été découvertes à la station Ampère (Lyon 2e), à l'occasion du chantier de l'ascenseur. Elles étaient enfouies à 2,5 mètres de profondeur. Il s'agit d'éléments d'une très grande pièce de pavement antique, dont une partie a déjà été mise à nu, en 1860 lors du creusement d'un égout et en 1976 lors de la construction de la station de métro.<br />
Ces pièces gallo-romaines témoignent de l'existence de demeures de prestige et d'installations commerciales appartenant à de riches commerçants. Elles remontent au 2e siècle.

  • ROME, ITALY - JUNE 03: Illustration of Rome; Italy on June 03, 2012..Colosseum and Arch of Constantine. The Colosseum's original Latin name was Amphitheatrum Flavium. Its construction started in 72 AD under the emperor Vespasian and was completed in 80 AD under Titus, with further modifications being made during Domitian's reign (81-96). The name "Amphitheatrum Flavium" derives from both Vespasian's and Titus's family name (Flavius, from the gens Flavia). Capable of seating 50,000 spectators, the Colosseum was used for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles such as mock sea battles, animal hunts, executions, re-enactments of famous battles, and dramas based on Classical mythology.  In antiquity, Romans may have referred to the Colosseum by the unofficial name Amphitheatrum Caesareum remained in service for nearly 500 years, the latest games lasting until the sixth century; Today, it stays partially ruined because of damage caused by devastating earthquakes and stone-robbers, the Colosseum is an iconic symbol of Imperial Rome...Arch of Constantine The Arch of Constantine is a triumphal arch in Rome, situated near the Colosseum and Palatine Hill. It was erected by the Roman Senate to commemorate Constantine I's victory over Maxentius at the Battle of Milvian Bridge on October 28, 312. The arch spans the Via Triumphalis, the way taken by the emperors when they entered the city in triumph.  It measures 21.10 meters high, 25.7 m wide and 7.4 m deep

seventeenth century's building , it bears the name of the gypsy girl who illuminates with her grace, the novel by Victor Hugo.<br />
Contrary to what one might think, it is not the oldest hotel in Paris, but it is inside one of the oldest house of the capital.<br />
Several rooms offer stunning views of the towers of Notre Dame and the Seine. In this setting of old stone with exposed beams and tiled floors, artists like Hugo Pratt, Béjart or  Gainsbourg often stopped here... Decorated with antiques collected at the flea market, each room has its personality.<br />
Sometimes, the shadow of Quasimodo glides over the towers.<br />

<br />
Plusieurs chambres offrent une vue imprenable sur les tours de Notre-Dame et la Seine. Dans ce cadre de vieilles pierres avec poutres apparentes et carrelage au sol, des artistes comme Hugo Pratt, Béjart ou Gainsbourg s'arrêtait souvent ici ...

St Peter was buried in the north of the circus and the Emperor Constantine built a basilica on the grand circus. This building was replaced by the current basilica during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.

  • VATICAN CITY, ROMA, ITALY - NOVEMBER, 20: Vatican Illustration.<br />
St. Peter's Basilica.<br />
Vatican City. Located on what was known in antiquity the ager Vaticanus, the banks of the Tiber, and at some distance from the Vatican Mountains, it stands on the former "Imperial Gardens" that were owned by Agrippina.<br />
His son, the emperor Caligula, also built a private circus, Circus Vaticanus, whose obelisk planted in the heart of the Piazza San Pietro is one of its only remnants. In this circus took place the martyrdom of many Christians at the time of Nero.<br />
St Peter was buried in the north of the circus and the Emperor Constantine built a basilica on the grand circus. This building was replaced by the current basilica during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.
