Aquileia, located in Northeast Italy (refer to the map below), was an important Roman city that was completely destroyed by Attila the Hun in AD 452. Recent excavations at the site have begun to reveal its extensive size (see video below). Notably, recent discoveries in the remains of the Aquileia Baths have uncovered an apse along with fragments of statues and columns.
