The Forum
The Roman Forum was an economic, political, judicial, financial and religious centre. It was the heart of the ancient city for over twelve centuries.
Originally, the term 'forum' referred to the main square where the population gathered. It was here that people brought their goods to trade. Our Forum aims to be an open, public and free meeting place, whose only commercial goods are words, concepts, experiences, reflections, writings and insights.
