A list of puns related to "Seven hills of Rome"
I have always wondered about why the centre of Rome seemed to move away from original hills (the pomerium area) to the west, closer to the river in the Campus Martius after the fall of the Roman West. Was it as simple as closer access to the water, the Aqua Virgo being one of the few aqueducts not destroyed, and defense being provided by the Aurelian Walls (and so not needing to be up on hilltops like pre-Roman history)?
Any sources I should look up that talk about this as well?
I am a big history buff and particularly fancy the city of Rome. And I swore it was 9 Hills. It was pounded in my head for Latin in High School. Well I thought. But βhistoryβ states it is 7 hills within the city. Am I going crazy?! Did I just remember wrong!? Or is a Mandela effect βmatrix glitchβ... I am 31... anyone around my age remember the same?
Did each of the hills have significance? I'm reading Mike Duncan's "The Storm Before the Storm" and there's reference to the Palatine hill. Did the Romans hold significance to which hills Romulus and Remus waited for a sign of primacy?
Going to ayr Montgomeryville but donβt know if I should go with kind tree or seven hillsβ¦.never saw some of the kind tree quarters they had
