Viggen Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 The Roman past of Lucca has been revealed by a striking new discovery in the heart of the Tuscan walled city . Archaeologists have unearthed evidence of a Roman presence long before the traditonal date of Roman settlement in 180 BCE - corroborating Roman historian Livy's account of the great Carthaginian general Hannibal passing through Lucca in 217 BCE . via Ansa.it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
