San Lorenzo in Lucina - The Second Century (322 words) |
 | The Second Century AD The oldest remains beneath the church of San Lorenzo in Lucina are walls of second century buildings. |
| Also the foundation wall excavated in 1998 close to the baptistery should belong to the pre-insula phase, that is to the second century AD. |
| The known second century levels seem to indicate that the ground was higher to the west - as it still is, by the way. |
| Nabataean (1344 words) |
| But strangely enough, since the beginning of the century, the information about this period was usually limited to the study and classification of the religious and funerary monuments. |

| The site, where a large religious complex was built in the beginning of the first century AD as well as official and residential buildings, played a major part in the exploitation of the area located to the south of the wadi Hasa. |
