The last Remains of the first Forum in Ostia
In the Forum's area, two walls have been the focal point. The first wall is the western wall of the Late Republican temple preserved under the western Hadrianic portico. The second wall is a predecessor wall of the so-called Curia. These two walls have been documented using photogrammetry.

The first fora of Ostia
The focus of my work during the last year has been on creating the first theories on the first
Forum of Ostia. This has included analysing a vast amount of empirical material from other
comparable cities. This has led to the creation of three phases of the Late Republican Forum of
Ostia.
