Where was Alba Longa? Over the centuries, this question has stimulated the most varied conjectures, by scholars, poets, historians, philologists and, of course, archaeologists. Fantasy has often merged with reality, myth with history. All of these hypotheses present some credible data, but mixed with more improbable aspects drawn from either ancient writers or uncorroborated documents. This, in turn, has led to incompatibilities between the hypotheses and the reality of archaeological excavations. The scholar Riccardo Bellucci, after years of systematic research, now proposes a coherent and consistent solution to the location of the Mater Urbis, in a previously unsuspected area. The motivation, intuition and documentation that has led Bellucci to decide on his theory, will fascinate everyone; and stimulate debate on the truth of his conclusions. The book then goes beyond the story of Alba Longa itself to provide further fascinating detail related to the area.

ROMVLVS is an epic series that details the Second Rise of Rome as capital of world civilization, a renewed city of marble at the head of a powerful union. The books follow characters from the past, present, and future, each of them describing the timeline of events defining the Great Second Rise.Inspired by ancient primary texts, the grand narrative of Livy's Rome, as well as the personal diaries of Julius Caesar, and Bede's histories, ROMVLVS presents itself as a modern day chronicle for Rome's New Union.-Book I: Alba LongaSetting: Fascist Italy, 1922 - 1925Following the diary of Paolo Fabiano, Alba Longa opens as the Turin members of the National Fascist Party plan to help take Rome by coup.These are early, optimistic days for wide eyed Fascists, before there were Nazis rattling the sabers of global war. These are the sunshine days of roaming squads, rousing speeches and their imperial theses, of spilled wine and cigarette smoke, all lining tables filled with breads and pastas, meats and cheeses.They are days for pummeling Socialists and forcing Communists to drink castor oil.It is a time when one can unleash his neoclassical masculinity upon the soil and grasses of earth, civilizing golems of unflinching marble packaged behind black shirts, gray slacks, buckled leather straps and visored hats: all topped with the glinting, golden bundled Fasces and Axe.In Alba Longa, we learn about a young and ambitious man caught up in Mussolini's expanding movement, driven by a passionate ROMANITAS.As the Fascists gain increasing national power, Paolo finds that he has growing access to violence against whomever he pleases, all in the name of The State.Alba Longa is a journey through political entanglements, through complex friendships, demanding family ties, and tumultuous romance, all while one man teeters between the thinker that he is and the brute he is allowed to become.

For more than three decades, a handful of brilliant forgers, all of them at the same time renowned painters, worked so hard and so well that today no one can put their hand in the fire and say, without batting an eyelid, that they possess the original of this or that painting, of any famous painter, of this or no matter what other era. The scientific experts, skilled in the most modern techniques of dating and attribution, the most prestigious gallery owners, art historians, auctioneers, and other intervenors in the field, have all let slip fakes that have consequently been catalogued as authentic and sold as such. The existence of two and even three or more apocrypha of many of them was later discovered. A strict censorship has been imposed on the media; a real veto has fallen from the highest levels that has turned the subject into a sacred taboo. For if it were to spread, panic would spread, as distrust spreads regarding what the system has turned into the supreme currency of exchange, which not only never devalues itself, but has, in recent years, increased in value according to a geometrical progression. The safe-haven value that has more than replaced gold. The elites who hold absolute power would lose colossal amounts of money and their influence would be diminished, to the detriment of their unspeakable projects. With a perfect mastery of the technique of thriller and suspense, Alba Longa tells us the story in which he himself was involved and, during which, he almost cost him his skin. THE HOUSE NEXT DOOR is set in cosmopolitan Nice that is about to experience the most dramatic events in its history. To tell the truth, you don't come out well reading this novel. The reader is left with the impression that the most sacred words in the world today: freedom, democracy, human rights, social progress and so many others, are nothing but manufactured mirages, a smokescreen called NWO (New World Order) that prevents us from seeing ourselves for what we are: the new slaves of the Empire, at the unconditional service of other Nero and Caligula who are not mad, and for that very reason is more wicked than the former.

Clara Bardés, granddaughter of a famous deceased painter, has been hired to restore a series of paintings, some dating from the Middle Ages, which are preserved in the Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris. During a solitary visit to the upper part of the building, when the tourists have already left, she notices the deformed silhouette of Ergaster, a perverse torturer whom she believed to be dead and of whom she could have been another victim, along with Professor Alba Longa, had it not been for the fact that, at the last moment, Commissioner Tynianov intervened. The cathedral closed behind her, and the criminal, who had apparently not seen her, remained inside. Once in her apartment, terrified, she called Alba Longa and he contacted Tynianov. Between the three of them, pulling the thread of the presence in the cathedral of this murderer, a specialist in the so-called "death of a thousand cuts," they discover a terrible conspiracy, the disastrous consequences of which are expected for the next few days.

This thesis explores how Alba Longa played a role in shaping Roman identity and self-perception. It first considers the ways that Roman rites and ceremonies held at Alba, primarily the Feriae Latinae and the Alban Mount triumph, provided and affirmed the legitimate authority of the Roman state and its officials. It then interrogates various locations and monuments in Rome, including the Tiber River and the Forum of Augustus, to show their functions as places of Alban memory. These marked sites serve both to point Rome back to Alba and to center Alban legitimacy in Rome. In conclusion, this thesis demonstrates that the connection between Rome and Alba was important to the perception of Roman hegemony that rests upon its claim as the successor to Alba.

Alba Longa is the ancient capital of Latium, on the Italian peninsula. The Roman Empire was born from this great city. However, behind the glory of what Rome became is a darker tale of secrecy, betrayal and death. Numitor is a good man and a great diplomat; his brother Amulius an envious plotter and brave conqueror. Their struggle for power will bring out the best of one and the worst of the other. Only one can be king. Rhea Silva (Lillia) is the daughter of Numitor, her first son will become heir to the throne. Her life is thrown into turmoil by events out of her control, putting her and her twin boys in mortal danger. The Hounds of Diana are the secret sect that protects the realm from within. Yet, there are those that would undermine it. Then, there are the Dormienti, the sleepers. Only when the Hounds call, do the Dormienti awaken, and only when death desires it.

Through roughly 160 alphabetically arranged reference entries, this book surveys the material culture and social institutions of Ancient Rome. Ancient Rome was one of the great civilizations of antiquity. Honoring the contributions of their cultural forebearers-who included Etruscans, Asians, and Egyptians as well as Greeks-Roman artists, writers, and thinkers freely borrowed where tradition dictated and innovated where personal talent and imagination directed, forging a unique creative experience that formed the basis of Western European artistic, literary, and philosophical production for 2,000 years. While other reference works typically examine battles and politicians, this book focuses on Roman social history and daily life, painting a detailed picture of the material culture and social institutions of Ancient Rome. A timeline highlights key events, while an overview essay surveys the achievements of the Romans. Reference entries provide objective information about art, architecture, literature, commerce, transportation, government, religion, and other topics related to Roman life. Each entry provides cross-references and suggestions for further reading, and some provide sidebars of interesting facts along with excerpts from primary source documents. The book closes with a selected, general bibliography of resources suitable for student research.
