Researchers have discovered a previously unknown Roman city 'of monumental proportions' in Northern Spain:
Archaeologists at the University of Zaragoza in Spain have unearthed an entire Roman city that was previously unknown. Until they discover its historical name, they’re calling the site El Forau de la Tuta.
Research remains ongoing, but 13 experts from the university recently released a report on the project’s findings so far. According to an English translation, their involvement started in 2018, when Artieda’s city council contacted the University of Zaragoza out of concern for the “deterioration and neglect” of the existing ruins.
Pairing remote sensing techniques like georadar and aerial images with traditional methods, the researchers located two streets, the whispers of sidewalks, four rudimentary cement sewer outlets, one life-sized marble hand of a presumed public monument, and even the reception room of a thermal bath—replete with mosaics preserved by the collapsed sandstone ceiling.
