TOUR SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN Tour of Monte Testaccio begins in Monte Testaccio, which is an artificial hill created between II° BC and III° AD entirely by the fragments (in Latin “testae” hence the name of Testaccio) of amphorae used to transport olives, oil, or wine that were unloaded from the ships in the nearby river port of Rome. The hill has a perimeter of about 3,330 feet and is 150 feet high. It constitutes an important source of historical documentation about the economic development of the Roman Empire, the commercial relations, and the food habits of the Romans. 

Many amphorae from Spain and North Africa have marks on their handles. Others are painted or with notes written indicating the exporter’s name, the contents, and other important information. Calculating the number of amphorae accumulated allowed us to know the amount of oil that reached Rome in this period. Our tour guides are professional licensed guides possessing solid historical, archaeological, and artistic backgrounds.
