Ancient Ostia and Synagogue. Group tours

4 hours

Probably this area was already inhabited since 1400 BCE because at the east of Ostia were salt-pans, salt was probably already extracted in the Middle and Late Bronze Age (1400-1000 BC). There may have been a small village near the salt-pans in the Early Iron Age (1000-700 BC). The city of Ostia started its development during the Roman Monarchy time 8 th cent BCE and it faced decline only in the 4th  century CE.  Visiting this massive archeological park we will discover apartment buildings, with two or more upper floors, and the so-called medianum-apartments, the habitations of the commercial middle class, the Domus, the houses of the upper class, and also hotels , bars and hundreds of shops, Baths and communal latrines, Wall-paintings and beautiful Mosaics. Temples and little shrines, dedicated to traditional and oriental deities.  Very interesting are the synagogue ruis, which are located in a not well-known tourist site. So be ready to walk to see the Aaron akodesh and mosaics built in the mid-first century of what is considered to be the Oldest European Synagogue and the second oldest of the Diaspora.
