    Wonderful video, thanks for posting it. As someone with a certain amount of experience in 3D modeling, I can attest to the enormous amount of hours it takes to produce something that detailed. Very impressive!

    Excellent video. Very enjoyable. I can attest personally to how confusing the Forum can be when you are actually there.

    very cool indeed, especially the info on the pantheon....some neat stuff there i wasn't aware of!

    the poster of the vid has lots of other cool short vids about art from antiquity through the modern times, take a look.

    Interesting. I have a small book I purchased in Rome the very first time I visited. There is an overlay for each photograph showing what the ruins would have looked like in their heyday. This video pretty much does the same. Thanks for posting it.

    Keep in mind 4rth century Rome was a city in decline. The centers of power had moved to other cities as the Senate declined in power. From the mid 3rd Century most Emperor's spent little if any time in Rome and the imperial bureaucracy moved to other cities such as Trier. So what you are seeing in the video is not Rome in it's heyday but a much more diminished city a century after Rome had seized to be of much relevance. Still impressive though with it's architecture and monuments from earlier times, right?
