  1. Esquiline Necropolis

    File Affresco con scena storica della necropoli dell esquilino.jpg thumb 200px Fresco with a historical scene, the first such in ancient Roman frescoes. The Esquiline Necropolis Italian Necropoli dell Esquilino was a prehistoric necropolis on the Esquiline in Rome, in use until the end of the 1st century AD. It came into use when the Forum necropolis fell into disuse in the mid 8th century BC other than for child burials, which continued there until the end of the 7th century BC , and testifies to Rome s expansion towards Velia . Its burials have richer grave goods and are better supplied with weapons, typical of a now aristocratic warrior class, as already existed in other areas along the Tyrrhenian Sea Tyrrhenian seaboard such as Etruria and Campania. As regards the protohistoric period, the burials are of the advanced second phase and, more typically, the third phase , characterized by more compressed form rather than globular form pots, with more elongated handles towards the top and more costolature than moulded or carved decoration.
