Finally a great reconstruction! I'm Roman, with a passion for the Roman Forum history, a huge thank you for permitting many people all around the world to understand how it was. I'll wait for more! 👌🙏
My god, the POWER and MAJESTY this depicts is a tearjerker. Every day I only find my reverence for the Roman civilization, its heroes, its monuments, its values and ideals, vindicated tenfold.
What he nailed on the head is the Polychromy. When at that time the thousand year old ruins were excavated during the renaissance, they thought that all the marble reliefs and statues were white and that’s not true. That kind of formed the idea of what we think of Rome today. A lot of it was painted and the columns were accented with paint as well. Also, practical application of marble. The Roman’s loved marble but they also plastered a lot of brick buildings much like they still do in the Mediterranean today. And they painted them bright colors, especially in the republic era.
This is even more grandiose than the huge set in The fall of the Roman Empire, I never get tired of watching this, you can almost smell the air in that incredible place.
That would be awesome to see the differences. I've been to Rome and seeing like this, in your 8 minute version, I can recognize where I've been, even though most of it is rubble. Thank you for creating this. It really brings to life what I've tried to see in my imagination.
Wow! Brilliant. The glory of Rome's architecture is absolutely grand, stunning and is matchless. There's awe and joy watching something we could never imagine on our own. Magnificent.
Thank you! I've been there once, trying to imagine what they took as ordinary. Ancient Rome, which I study and love, has taught me to appreciate today's architecture as if two thousand years from now, people will struggle and yearn to know what it was like.
WOW, simply amazing, the forum remains very similar thru the imperial classic era, the biggest changes that i can see is the lack of the temple of Vespasian and Titus and the Arch of Septimius Severus, but it was as beautiful as ever even since the reign of Augustus.
You have a fanciful view of how Rome really was! Just outside of downtown, were rat infested, fire traps broken down apartment buildings, slums as far as the eye could see. You have heard of the slums of the major cities of the US and Europe during the beginning of the Industrial Age, Rome was much worse for most of the people.
Absolutely stunning, as always. Fantastic job! Would love to see addition of people and merchants to give a true sense of what the hustle and bustle of daily life in the Forum may have been like.
Wonderful! Thank you for these videos! I love Ancient anything, from art and archtecture, to warfare. Your videos are fantastic. I feel so immersed in them! The music for this video was perfect as well. Amazing work!
Wooow, Incredibly magnificent !! 2000 years ago and yet so advanced. Incredible! Probably a good part of humanity at that time was living in caves and huts .
Stunning! An amazing reproduction. I've always struggled to understand what was at the forum until I've seen this video. Makes it very clear and explains at a pace where you can take it all in and make sense of it all
Stunning. Great work. A lot of ancient Rome's visual appeal comes from its topography, the hills, and how the buildings are layered in diferent levels like a wedding cake.
Cities like this could not be feasibly built in today's world.The cost would be far too great for any country to attempt this feat. If I could live in such a city with such beauty in its construction and layout I would never get tired of it. Absolutely stunning!
Gorgeous!... we appreciate the amount of time invested in your presentations...keep up the good (no GREAT) work! I am going to mention this to my granddaughters teachers at the next school function
A stunning digital performance!!! Having enjoyed Colleen McCullouhg's "Masters of Rome" series numerous times and visited Rome quite often, I absolutely love this digital depiction! McCullough's descriptions (and detailed maps) correspond nicely with this digital tour.
This is just so amazing! Thank you so much! I used to stand among old ruins & want so much to see the sites as they were in their prime & you make this wish come true! ♥
The best video of ancient Rome i have ever watched but plz if you want just take us inside any temple i want to see the gratest inside of the venus temple or Jupiter optimos maximus or any temple plz.i love this channel so much and i hope you will go bigger and higher and be the best channel
Beautiful work!!! Yesterday I read that Circus Maximus could contain 250.000 people. Now, thank to your beautiful work, I dream for a moment to be there. And always yesterday I have seen another beautiful work about the underground of the Flavian Amphitheater (Colosseum). It was amazing how the Romans were good in building (thanks to Emperor Augustus' friend Vipsanio Agrippa, who was a great general but also an incredible architecture: Pantheon and all the aqueducts). Thanks a lot!!!
Visually breathtaking and a reminder of how compressed the city was, lacking land mass. The night noise must have been overwhelming ! Much less the smell of so tightly compacted a population !! Thank you, for all your time and effort. Pat
I am blown away by the magnificence of your creation and how it puts me right there in Rome of that period. You have indeed created a time machine! One question: Is there a way to create a video like this one with moving people in it to bring it so much closer to life? There's a kind of sadness about the video because it's so incredibly well made and realistic except that without people going about their business, it's like viewing the Eternal City after the mythical claim about a neutron bomb, which was supposed to be able to kill people but leave buildings intact.
The thing that stands out to me the most, is how much these were spaces built for people. Not the way office buildings are; office buildings are meant to CONTAIN people, they shut them off from one another, and separate them. These space are open; they welcome you in, and allow you to wander and congregate, all the while directing you where to go and how to move, without ever truly making you feel contained or concealed.
I think the Temple of the Jupiter Optimus Maximus is not that on top the Tabularium, but the bigger and whiter temple to the left at min 9:34. Besides, are you absolutely sure there was a temple or another structure on top of the Tabularium? There was indeed that Temple of Juno Moneta to the right of Tabularium(same minute 9:34 for better reference).
Yes, according to relatively recent investigations (Coarelli etc.), the 'Tabularium' structure served as a foundation for at least 2 or 3 temples. And yes, it is the Temple of Juno Moneta to the right of it.
I always love coming back to this video. The detail is so precise, I noticed at 8:31 the features of the imposts of the piers and even the scale of the marble bricks are exactly as seen with the single remaining pier standing at the Basilica Julia today, WOW! One question, is the alley at 8:31 wider than the alley at 8:27? It seems like with this reconstruction it is, and I have noticed that with the remains of the basilica today too, although anything I read about the site says that the spacing is the same. Thank you for making these reconstructions, by far the most accurate on the internet from what I have seen, best of luck with your works!
Hermoso, me encanta el trabajo de este canal, una pregunta, el templo de Castor era en mismo para Polux? Sería genial ver la reconstruction del templo de Mars Ultor.
Yeah, also a great idea. With its blend of late Roman 4th century, Justinianian and medieval architectures. Besides that the city had great influences from Islam and other parts of Europe as well as countless treasures of classical Greek, Roman and egyptian art.
The temple at 9:17 up top I have never seen on any of the other forum reconstruction videos, I'm assuming it was torn down later in time? Also this is probably the best forum remake I've seen and I've basically seen them all great work
Thank you for a wonderful video. Is it feasible to have a modern view like Google earth play in the bottom of the screen so as the 3d view moves so you can see Google earth view move thus giving you a better idea of where you are based on how we walk through today. Again thank you. Alan
Toujours aussi superbes ces vidéos, ce forum si mystérieux, avec les aléas politiques de l'époque où tout se décidait. Ce qui frappe quand on découvre les quartiers de Rome, c' est cette ambivalence des espaces inextricables de ruelles et d' habitations aux espaces publiques dont mêmes ceux-ci sont peu étendu par rapport aux édifices colossaux qui les bordent.🏛👍
It wouldbe nice if the same camera path were taken by a drone filming the forum as it is today, blending back and forth between reality and reconstruction.
Great video and a greart time travel back to ancient Rome. But you forgot to mention the song used in this video. I tried to find it via Shazam but it failed. Remember, sometimes, some might want to download these songs from all the streaming platforms.
Temple of Castor & Pollux known as the Dioscures (the gemelli (twin) gods). But Pollux was always forgotten as for Remus in the foundation of Rome. Yes Pollux is there maybe as a reminder of Remus.
Could you please release this in VR? Ideally in the form of a windows mixed reality game - youtube VR render would be horrible since VR needs at least 16K resolution to look good.
How about a reconstruction of the Subura, the less wealthy area, north and east of the forum. ? Not quite as spectacular as the temples and baths but, it would give us a true feel for Roma.
Finally a great reconstruction! I'm Roman, with a passion for the Roman Forum history, a huge thank you for permitting many people all around the world to understand how it was. I'll wait for more! 👌🙏
I AM as well
Left it half a century ago but did many trips back and pilgrimage
You should rebuild it
il debito dell'Occidente verso Roma è inestimabile.

Absolutely beautiful. It would be cool to see a comparison between the republican, Augustian, late imperial and medieval forum...
Thank you! Yes, I hope we'll do it, step by step!

Absolutely stunning, as always. Fantastic job! Would love to see addition of people and merchants to give a true sense of what the hustle and bustle of daily life in the Forum may have been like.
Thanks! Will be added, gradually!
Thanks to all Archaeologists and 3D artists who making travel through time is possible.
In the Metaverse people will actually be able to live & work in here. You’re building an amazing project sir, so excited for the future! 😄
Thank you! I hope it will be so!
Wonderful! Thank you for these videos! I love Ancient anything, from art and archtecture, to warfare. Your videos are fantastic. I feel so immersed in them! The music for this video was perfect as well. Amazing work!
Thank you! I hope it is just a beginning of the series of such video tours!
Wooow, Incredibly magnificent !! 2000 years ago and yet so advanced. Incredible! Probably a good part of humanity at that time was living in caves and huts .
Very good looking!
Beautiful n majestic..to this day even.
Stunning! An amazing reproduction. I've always struggled to understand what was at the forum until I've seen this video. Makes it very clear and explains at a pace where you can take it all in and make sense of it all
Beautiful 3D view of the Roman Forum, I like the white and black marble of the Castor temple.
Fantatstic. I wish we could have had a walk through the Temple of Vesta and seen the altar of sacred flame.
STUNNING. I’ve been to Rome, and it’s jaw-dropping. Thank you for this amazing video.
Stunning. Great work. A lot of ancient Rome's visual appeal comes from its topography, the hills, and how the buildings are layered in diferent levels like a wedding cake.
Stunning..., it's absolutely fantastic, almost impossible to conceive such a beauty !
Thank you! Glad to hear!
Unbelievable such beautiful buildings built all those years ago any modern city would be proud to have a few of these buildings.
Thank you for your efforts, it is so helpful for person who studying the history.
Awesome recreation of ancient Rome in her full glory. Well done!!! 👏👏👏

I visited Rome in 2015 and it felt broken and seedy. This presentation is more ‘the real Rome’ to me than the city I visited in 2015. Thank you.
I was there in 2019 and got a totally different experience. It felt vibrant. Old and faded, but very much alive. I loved Napoli as well.
That looks amazing and more stylish than any city today. Athens was equally beautiful.
Феноменальная работа! Просто слов нет, спасибо!

This is amazing work.
Love everything about it , would like to see ancient Egypt and Persia version of this
Дух захватывает. А когда в конце Капитолийский Холм пошёл, аж мурашки пробежали!
This was great stuff….just amazing!
Simply awesome!

Great ! Bravo.
Rome is Eternal 🩸
Если реконструкция хотя бы на 50% соответствует тому, что было, то это удивительно, прекрасно и предки наши много чего знали и умели. Великолепно!💥
Were all the beautiful archways covered with wood...is that the material they used or is it some form of ironwork...so very pretty
Hermoso, me encanta el trabajo de este canal, una pregunta, el templo de Castor era en mismo para Polux? Sería genial ver la reconstruction del templo de Mars Ultor.
This is so beautifully done. It would be a nice idea if you could do this of Constantinople before the 4th crusade
Yeah, also a great idea. With its blend of late Roman 4th century, Justinianian and medieval architectures. Besides that the city had great influences from Islam and other parts of Europe as well as countless treasures of classical Greek, Roman and egyptian art.
Thanks! Maybe in future, so far we're concentrated on ancient Rome, it is the enormous amount of work itself. :)
@@historyin3d and I hope you succeed to glory

This is either the temple of Venus Victrix or Fausta Felicitas, atop of the Tabularium, according to the recent researches.
@Rome in 3D Astonishing! Which rendering software has been used for this fantastic result? O: Very Impressive work!
Thank you! Various)
Просто волшебно. Огромное спасибо за прекрасный и важный труд. Каким будет следующий проект? Может быть, Константинополь?
Спасибо! Я думаю, что Римом буду заниматься всю жизнь, и то многое могу не успеть.

I look at this and think, ... how could someone bring this beautiful place to the ground .
Speechless. (except for writing this) 👌🏼👍🏼✌🏼

I would personally love to live in a city that looks like this.
Augustus Actium arch that appears at 2:19 is missing at 1:18. Seems like a bug.
I really want someone to create a sandbox game set in Rome and/or the Empire. That would be sick.
is there janitor in ancient rome? if there ..any article about it?
Это мегакруто, практически попал в мечту своего детства! Спасибо!
Спасибо большое!
Can this be viewed with an oculus quest 2 VR? Id is like to be able to feel like I’m right there standing on the forum.

I wonder how far back you can accurately go? To Scipio Africanus' time? To Camillus' time?
The color of writing makes it illegible to read . Please Eithar change it or add audio. It is beautiful. Thanks .
It wouldbe nice if the same camera path were taken by a drone filming the forum as it is today, blending back and forth between reality and reconstruction.
@@tubenhans6190 one day I’ll do it.
We need to build the hinge like this again. Or at least try. Every nation should have remarkable architecture like this.
