Geoarchaeology confirms location of the ancient harbour basin of Ostia (Italy)

Journal of Archaeological Science, 2014
To the northwest of the ancient city of Ostia, the analysis of cores revealed a stratigraphic sequence, which we interpret as the filling of a harbour basin. This basin, located at the west of the so-called "Palazzo Imperiale" presents seven characteristics: (1) The maximum depth is 6 m below the Roman sea level.
