Forum of Corporations

Italy / Lazio / Fiumicino /
 square, marketplace, 1st century construction
This was a huge square all surrounded with columns, where the most important merchant had their headquarters. It is a very atipical pattern for a roman forum, and the real forum infact was in another part of the town. This was more a place for buisiness.
It was built in the early I century AD, but it was only after the II century that merchants begun to open their offices there.
