The Roman Forum (Latin: Forum Romanum, Italian: Foro Romano) is a

small open rectangle surrounded by the ruins of ancient government

buildings at the center of the city of Rome. Citizens of the ancient city

referred to this marketplace as the Forum Magnum, or simply the

Forum. It was for centuries the center of Roman public life: the site of

triumphal processions and elections, venue for public speeches and

nucleus of commercial affairs. Here statues and monuments

commemorated the city's great men. The teeming heart of ancient

Rome, it has been called the most celebrated meeting place in the

world, and in all history.[1] Located in the small valley between the

Palatine and Capitoline Hills, the Forum today is a sprawling ruin of

architectural fragments and intermittent archeological excavations

attracting numerous sightseers.
