What reading level is The Topography And Monuments of Ancient Rome book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
8 Mitt. 1902, 9; CR. 1899, 234, 464; BC. 1903, 162-163.
THE FORUM. 273 shelf that has been cut in the side of the channel. For other drains near by, at a lower level, see p. 254.
The slope from the Velia to the Forum proper was drained into the basin of the Cloaca Maxima by means of a sewer under the Sacra via. Sections of this sewer have been excavated near the summa Sacra via, where the construction is of tufa blocks with a tile roof ; in front of the basilica of Constantine, 1 where it is of... opus reticulatum of tufa ; and along the north side of the Eegia and temple of Julius Caesar, where the work is also of opus reticulatum. It is evident that this sewer was of early date, but that it underwent considerable change in line and con- struction, at later periods.
During the recent excavations more than thirty wells (putei) of various depths and sizes have been found scattered through the Forum. Most of these wells belong either to the republic or to the middle ages, although there are a few of the interven- ing period.
