Vescovio
Forum Novum was a small Roman town in the Sabine Hills, 50 km north of Rome. In the middle ages it became a village called Vescovio, which was tiny but had a very important church. The work of the research team was part of the much bigger ‘Tiber Valley Project’ organised by the British School at Rome. This looked at the area around the Tiber between 1000 BC and AD 1300, investigating how human settlement of the area changed over time.
