Forum of Augustus in Rome, Italy: view of the ruins of Temple of Mars Ultor Mars the Avenger and the wall towards the Suburra. #263310160
Description
The entire complex was in fact here delimited by a gigantic wall in blocks of peperino, gabina stone and travertine, up to 33 meters high in the highest section. The temple was completely demolished, except for the three external columns still standing and the base, to recover marble and other building materials already during the reign of the Ostrogothic king Theoderic.
