This is the kind of 3D reconstructions of ancient Rome I love. The ones that takes you inside the buildings not only outside. I know they are more difficult to make and more speculative but they are also fascinating. 🙂
Che splendore, quanta magnificenza, tutto grandioso e straordinario; rispecchia la grandezza, la potenza, la magnificenza e la GLORIA DI ROMA, ROMA AETERNA, ROMA INVICTA ET LUX MUNDI 💪💯
What many people don't know is that large areas of the Imperial Palace were open to the public, like other public buildings. There were of course areas that were off limits to the public for private and security reasons.
Yes indeed. I found this out a little while ago while brushing up on some history. The emperor's loved to show off their palaces to everyone so it made sense to open them up to the public.
When Rome was in flames and Nero got back to the city he let homeless people from the burnt down areas stay at his palace. That the palaces were so open gives Nero's action some context.
Indeed, there is nothing like the feeling of wandering the ruins; but to get a sense of scale, lighting, and circulation, one needs a reconstruction. It would be even more spectacular to see this via a VR headset. The Learning Sites Team.
Thank you for your suggestion; yes, that would indeed be a wonderful sight to see. An enormous undertaking. Thank you for watching. The Learning Sites Team
@@learningsites You're welcome. Your other content as well look interesting, I will look forward to exploring it at a later point. You have a new subscriber. 😊
It's very nice. Italy should totally rebuild it like you have it here, someplace close to the original location, and make it a tourist museum, cafe, resturant, health spa, and hotel.
In un'Italia c'è un limite mentale e culturale che non permette la ricostruzione completa di certi affreschi o edifici, perché sennò diventerebbe un falso storico. Una cosa assurda.
Thank you so much for this I have been waiting for this amazing now my imagination is running wild with all people that lived & worked there some stories are good & others are terrible

Thanks for the insightful question; sorry about the delay in responding. Especially in those large public spaces, the ancient Romans used lots of portable braziers for localized heat, dressed warmly, and generally had a higher tolerance for cold and damp that we do today. The Learning Sites Team.
Very beautiful, even if the reconstruction around the fountain is not correct. Still today the clear marble slabs exist there, so it seems there was no space for plants between the fountain and the Peristylium.
Thank you for watching and for your observation. Our research and those of archaeologists in Rome seem to indicate that our spacing for the gardens and fountain is accurate based on the evidence we have gathered. The Learning Sites Team

It would be fascinating to fill the palace with active people going about their business and gain insight into the ancient Roman world. Modeling people and then converting the entire scene into virtual reality so that one could enter the palace and see first hand how operations ensued is possible, but time-consuming and beyond our initial mandate. This type of environment would be not only educational, but also offers archaeologists innovative means of evaluating their hypotheses and validating their assumptions about the evidence. Should the right circumstances arise, we (the oldest virtual heritage company in the world) would be ready for the challenge. The Learning Sites Team.
I have a question about the floor pavement: How certain is this reconstruction? Do we know the pattern of it because of imprints of the paving stones in the bedding mortar? If so, have they found in situ pieces of the marble paving so we can reconstruct the pattern + the color? I'm just interested, would be nice if you take the time to answer😊 otherwise I'll research myself
Thank you for the question. Indeed, there is quite a bit of surviving marble paving in several main rooms of the palace. We also have contemporary texts describing the specific types of marbles and where they came from. There is also evidence from excavations since the 18th century. The Learning Sites Team.
A least one major and several small aqueducts fed the palace with plenty of water under high pressure from sources far outside the city. Supplying the fountains, kitchens, and bathrooms of the palace was no problem for them. The Learning Sites Team.
Correct; the final room in the video is the Cenatio Iovis, which was the formal state dining hall of the Domus Flavia. It had a dais at the apsidal end of the hall which was for the emperor's table and important guests. The rest of the invited diners ate at tables scattered in the rest of the hall. Side windows opened to fountained courts which allowed cool fresh air to circulate throughout the hall. Thank you for watching and for your question. The Learning Sites team.
This is the throne room, with a great apse at one end for the emperor's throne. We know that the floor was made of large pieces of colored marbles, very similar to the Triclinium (massive dining room at the other end of the palace), and that floor survives. We took hints from that floor and created a close parallel for the throne room. This is also in keeping with the general types of floors, colors, and shapes known and found elsewhere in the palace. Thank you for your question and for watching our videos. The Learning Sites Team

Yes, we are responsible for the research and 3D modeling of the palace complex. It was created on demand by one of our clients; as all of our projects are. Should someone come to us with funding to create similar reconstructions of ancient Egyptian palaces, then we could move forward. Thank you for watching and for your suggestion. The Learning Sites Team
Not sure to which specific plantings you are referring; but we know a lot about ancient Roman gardens and landscaping practices both from excavations and from ancient writers who describe their gardens and cityscapes. Much about the types of trees, flowers, and plants themselves is also known. For this palace, however, and the areas around it, we had to improvise based on the evidence, because not much is known about the areas within this palace in particular. Thank you for watching. The Learning Sites Team.
Yes, the video shows the main floor official quarters of the palace; the family living quarters were one level below and not included in our reconstructions. He was most likely killed in his private bedroom down there. Thank you for watching; the Learning Sites Team
Thanks for watching. The dining room, though huge, does have reclining couches and tables; but in the rest of the public spaces, mostly they stood (except for the Emperor, of course ;-) The Learning Sites Team
Seeing this and realizing that none of it exists now I’m reminded the biblical Vanity Vanity, All is Vanity. Remember that when looking at your new house, car etc
Thank you for your comments. The ruins of the palace do still exist on the Palatine Hill in Rome, and some of the opulent marble flooring can be seen there, as well as vaults, fountain areas, and some of the main spaces. The Learning Sites Team.
Spiritually the world was much more advanced in this era of Domitian & Nerva in Italy. And also more advanced in Japan with Himiko, obsessed with trying to find 'real tangible evidence' as in practical religion. For example: HOW do I contact an ancestor and get answers? HOW do I summon spirit helpers to create a small army? (as they had, btw). Now, the spiritual world is all about 'afterlife' and 'punishment' and 'heaven or hell where are you going permanently?' i.e. untruthful rubbish, which is why it was illegal back then too (Judeo-Christian rubbish destroying the delicate human mind). And btw I'm NOT arrogant, telling people that their Christian/Catholic church was 100% illegal where it started; declared a hoax, unhealthy Etc. I'm persuasive, it's " duty to persuade ". It's like later on if someone says to me " Why didn't you persuade me? Why didn't you persuade them? Since you knew all this why didn't you tell me? ". That's why. Thank you for the 3D animation! Very cool.
To sum up, Judeo-Christianity as a whole was a very dangerous cult: th-cam.com/video/qj3jt3vAfa4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=eluhVOrtOnBpIWgm, which has been destroying the potential of humanity for two thousand years.

@@larsrons7937 I just wondered: could this mean that this was maybe even expected of him to a degree in this case?
The ruins are still wonderful. Great reconstructions, the drawn figures are very helpful to imagine the extent of the palace.
