"Steven, did you find something? Can you tell me about it?"
Giovanni asked suspiciously, and looked at the ruins of the Senate nearby.
The same goes for his men, who were all scanning the surrounding ruins, trying to find something.
But unfortunately, they do not have the eyes to see through everything, and their efforts are destined to be in vain.
In their view, they were surrounded by ruins. They were once very important in the history of Rome, but now they are just ruins.
"You are thinking too much, Giovanni. This is the 'Eternal City' Rome. Long before I left for Italy, I had this idea of exploring treasures in Rome. You know, I am a professional Treasure hunter.
Now that I have come to Rome, I certainly don’t want to miss this opportunity, and my luck has always been good. I am also very confident that I will definitely find something in Rome, so I proposed this cooperation proposal.
In my opinion, this is a win-win good thing. It can not only discover some buried treasures in Roman history and solve some historical mysteries, but also take the opportunity to promote it and attract more tourists to Rome! ”
Ye Tian chuckled and shook his head, denying Giovanni's speculation and not forgetting to continue to confuse him.
Of course he would not admit that he had discovered something in the ancient Roman ruins in front of him or elsewhere in the city of Rome.
Giovanni took a deep look at Ye Tian, then shook his head gently and said:
“Cooperating with your Brave and Intrepid Exploration Company to jointly explore treasures in the city of Rome. Such a major matter is not something we, the Italian Carabinieri, can decide.
I will give your feedback to the Italian Ministry of Culture and the Commission for the Protection of Historical Heritage later. They and the Parliament will have the final say on whether to cooperate with you."
"Well, Giovanni, I look forward to hearing good news. I hope we can have the opportunity to jointly explore the treasure and give the world a huge surprise"
Ye Tian smiled and nodded. His expression was very relaxed and did not reveal any flaws.
Afterwards, Giovanni and the others said goodbye and left, full of doubts and confusion.
As soon as these guys left, Anderson whispered excitedly:
"Steven, did you find anything in these ruins? Treasure or valuable antique art, where was it found?"
Not only him, but everyone else at the scene was very concerned about the answer to this question. Everyone looked at Ye Tian with excited and expectant expressions.
Ye Tian glanced at these guys, then smiled and shook his head and said:
"We have been together all the time. If I discover any treasures or top-notch antiques, it is impossible for you not to know about it, so the answer is obvious and there is no surprising discovery.
The reason why I proposed the joint exploration of treasures in Rome is based on my judgment that an ancient city like Rome, full of ruins, must have hidden treasures."
Hearing these words, Betty and Anderson couldn't help but nodded slightly. They had no objections and did not continue to ask questions.
But deep down, each of them had a vague feeling that this guy Steven must have discovered something, and he would never be able to target it without aim.
After chatting for a few words, everyone ended the topic and turned their attention to what was in front of them, continuing to visit the ruins of the ancient Roman Senate, which was just around the corner.
The Senate was the political organ of ancient Rome. It first appeared in the Royal Age. As a national advisory body, it was composed of elders of wealthy nobles of the clan, known as the Council of Elders. It is considered the prototype of the modern parliamentary system.
During the Roman Republic, the Senate was composed of former state governors and representatives of other large slave owners.
It has huge power, controls the power of governance, has the real power to approve and approve laws, approve the highest elected officials, manage finance, diplomacy, military, and implement major religious measures.
In the period of the ancient Roman Empire, power was increasingly concentrated in the emperor, and the Senate lost its original political status, but it was still the political pillar of aristocratic rule.
It is precisely because of the prominent status and power of the Senate that the building of the Senate can occupy a place in the ancient Roman Forum, and it is in the most important position.
Compared with other historical sites in the 'Ancient Roman Forum', the Senate has existed for a long time in history, so the buildings are relatively well preserved.
Although after two thousand years, a basically complete Roman-style building still stands on the site of the Senate, with an earthy yellow exterior wall, three stories high, and a small scale.
From the outside, this Roman-style building is inconspicuous and quite dilapidated, exuding a sense of historical vicissitudes.
In front of the Romanesque building of the Senate, there is a modern awning, and under the shed is a huge black marble, which is very conspicuous.
Not far from this Romanesque building, opposite the Roman Forum, there is an even more magnificent Senate building, the Palace of the Senate.
It is a Roman Republic-era building that Michelangelo presided over the reconstruction in 1538. It is now the seat of the Roman city government and one of the political centers of Rome.
After quickly scanning the scene, Ye Tian began to carefully visit and appreciate the buildings and ruins on the site of the Senate. The first thing he noticed was the ancient Roman-style building.
Although this Romanesque building seems to be relatively complete, it is already crumbling. Tourists are not allowed to enter it and can only stand outside the guardrail to look at it.
As for the broken walls and the situation under the awnings nearby, there is no such problem. They are unobstructed and can be seen clearly at a glance.
After standing outside the metal guardrail and watching for a while, Ye Tian began to explain so that Betty and the others could better visit and learn more about the relevant knowledge.
“At the beginning of the birth of the Roman Republic, the institution of the Senate had already appeared. Tradition holds that the Senate was created by Romulus, the founder of the city of Rome, as an advisory council.
The location of this black marble in front of the ruins of the Senate is said to be a holy place, where the tomb of Romulus, the founder of Rome, is buried.
At first, the Senate only included a hundred heads of Roman families, who were called fathers. Later, the term aristocrats evolved. The senators of the Senate served for life. At first, they did not have much power..."
While explaining, Ye Tian did not forget to look through, secretly exploring the inside of the earth-yellow building in front of him, as well as the situation deep underground of the black marble and many ruins.
As far as the eye could see, the earth-yellow Roman-style building not far ahead was instantly seen by Ye Tian, and the situation inside the building was immediately revealed, extremely clear.
Many ancient Roman-style decorations are carved on the walls and roofs of the building. Some of the sculptures originally placed inside have long since disappeared, leaving only some marble bases.
There are rows of seats in the hall on the first floor that are similar to steps and made of bricks and stones. It is obviously a venue. Other than that, there is nothing else and it is empty.
As for any hidden compartments or secret rooms, Ye Tian did not discover them.
Even if there are hidden compartments and secret rooms here, it is not his turn to discover the things hidden inside, let alone today!
In the past two hundred years or so, countless archaeologists and historians must have entered here to investigate and explore. Those guys are not blind!
After quickly looking through the Roman-style building, Ye Tian immediately shifted his gaze to the ground of the building and began to explore the situation deep underground.
There are some things buried underground in this ruins, including some rusty ancient weapons, bronze vessels, pottery, coins and other items, as well as the remains of one or two sculptures.
Although these things are ancient antiques and have a certain value, they cannot impress Ye Tian and make him feel surprised.
After looking through the Roman-style building and the many ruins around it, Ye Tian looked at the black marble under the awning and the so-called Roman Holy Land.
You can see that there are some ancient Latin and ancient Roman-style decorations and patterns carved on that piece of marble.
Although he didn't know ancient Latin, Ye Tian came to an accurate judgment in an instant through the traces of carvings and ancient Roman-style decorations and patterns.
More than two thousand years ago, those words and patterns were carved on black marble. They were obviously made by the ancient Romans and were not forged by later generations.
This also shows that as early as two thousand years ago, this black marble was probably transported to the ancient Roman Forum and has been placed here since then until today.
However, the history of the words and patterns on the marble is hundreds of years later than the era of Romulus and the founding of Rome, so there is obviously a big discrepancy.
Could it be that hundreds of years after Romulus died, the Romans moved this black marble from elsewhere and placed it here in order to commemorate him?
Perhaps there is another possibility. This is just a trick played by the old foxes in the Senate, using Romulus' huge reputation to enhance the status of the Senate and gain greater power for themselves!
No matter where this piece of black marble came from, what kind of story is hidden behind it.
After a long history of more than two thousand years, it has been given a sacred color, deified, and respected by all Romans. Its original origin is no longer relevant!
Under perspective, this sacred black marble was immediately seen through by Ye Tian. It was a dense stone with no hidden secrets!
But deep in the black marble underground, under the so-called holy land, Ye Tian actually saw a tomb made of bricks, stones and concrete, which surprised him.
The tomb is not too large in area and is quite old. However, there is no coffin in the tomb. There are only a few quite good sculptures standing in several corners of the tomb.
In addition, many exquisite decorations and patterns in the ancient Roman style are carved on the walls and top of the tomb.
Especially the mural carved on marble in the center of the tomb made him so excited that he almost screamed. Fortunately, his emotional control was very good, so he didn't reveal his secret.
It is a pattern of a she-wolf feeding two human babies. The carving technique is very skillful and lifelike, obviously from the hands of ancient Roman carving masters.
The appearance of this marble mural fits perfectly with the legend that this is the tomb of Romulus, the founder of Rome.
According to legend, Romulus, the founder of Rome, and his twin brother Remus were raised by a she-wolf.
Because of this legend, the city emblem of Rome throughout the ages has always been the picture of a she-wolf raising a baby, and the she-wolf has also become one of the totems of Rome.
Based on this alone, it is absolutely certain that this is the tomb of Romulus, the founder of Rome.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s a real cemetery or a trick played by the Senate!
Because this is just a symbol, it does not seem to be particularly important whether there is Romulus's coffin or his bones in the tomb.
Of course, it would be more convincing if there were Romulus' coffin and bones here.
But unfortunately, this is an empty tomb. God knows where the coffin placed inside has flown to, or maybe it never existed!
After thoroughly looking through the entire tomb, Ye Tian was very sure.
This is definitely the biggest discovery since arriving in Rome. Once it is discovered, it will definitely cause a huge sensation, and this place can become a real Holy Land in Rome in an instant!
