Archeologists in Italy have unearthed a sprawling country villa they believe to be the birthplace of Vespasian, the Roman emperor who ordered the beginning of the Colosseums construction during his reign. The 2000-year-old ruins were found about 80 miles northeast of Rome near Cittareale.
This year's excavation brought to light rooms of great importance now visible, like those rooms featuring mosaic or opus sectile floors. The latter using marble slabs made of valuable marble coming from all over the Roman Empire.

The 150,000-square-foot complex was at the center of an ancient village called Falacrine, Vespasian' hometown. Other archeologists have expressed skepticism about this discovery, citing the lack of solid evidence that Vespasian lived here. But Coarelli says, even though there are noinscriptions to attribute it for certain, the village's location and luxury make it likely it was Vespasian's birthplace.

Let's say that we are pretty confident that this is the villa where Vespasian was born, also given the fact there are no other possible hypotheses.

The 4-year excavation, which also turned up other ruins including a necropolis burial ground, was carried out by a group of Italian and British archeologists.

I'm right in that area of the Lake of Nero which was for his perfect, private dwelling place, er, Vespasian built the Colosseum which is one of the famous monuments in Rome, one of most famous monuments in the world.

Vespasian, who was born in the year 9AD, brought stability to the Roman Empire followingturmoil under the extravagant Emperor Nero and a civil war among his successors. While emperor and using riches plundered from Jerusalem and proceeds from increased taxes, he launched a major public works program and started building the Colosseum--the most ambitious and best-preserved of his projects.
