Capitoline Hill and Altar of the Fatherland 🇮🇹 Rome Tourist Guide - Travel & Discover

The hill was earlier known as Mons Saturnius, dedicated to the god Saturn. The word Capitolium first meant the temple of Jupiter Optimus Maximus later built here, and afterwards it was used for the whole hill (and even other temples of Jupiter on other hills), thus Mons Capitolinus (the adjective noun of Capitolium). Ancient sources refer the name to caput ("head", "summit") and the tale was that, when laying the foundations for the temple, the head of a man was found,[3] some sources even saying it was the head of some Tolus or Olus. The Capitolium was regarded by the Romans as indestructible, and was adopted as a symbol of eternity.

Lovely video.. I recently visited Rome two weeks ago.... But due to shortage of time I was unable to see all the monuments... Your video was very informative and I could quench my thirst to some extent... I hope I can visit again...

The best museum in Rome is MUSEO NAZIONALE ROMANO.
