FISH Symbol Origins in Rome - The #ICHTHYS Circle
FISH Symbol Origins in Rome - The ICHTHYS Circle. The Secret Fish symbol. An monogram with a hidden acrostic within.
Found just below of the audio booth in The Forum of ancient #Rome, still to be visited to this day. It is carved in the volcanic rocks used on the road of the Via Nova in The Forum. This road was constructed during the reign of Nero in Roman times. The secret or hidden symbol was used to let other followers of Jesus Christ that like-minded people, Christians, were in the immediate area. A sign of faith; a means of secret, yet open, communication.
The Origin of the #Christian Fish… See also -
The #Jesus Fish symbol in Rome, Italy! See this yourself in Rome, right by the ticket counter for Palatine Hill, right above the Forum:
The Savior...
Was too dangerous to say,
for in these early AD days they would feed you to the lions for such talk. Hence a code word or common word with a hidden meaning seems to heave been created...
In Greek it was the word fish
This was an acronym for;
Jesus Christ God's Son Savior
#God #Jesus #symbols #GodLovesYou
It is hidden in a monogram of a circle with 4 intersecting lines, like a wheel, oddly enough. It is ICHTYS or Echthis, the Greek word for “Fish” - The wheel, as a side note, was one of the most important inventions from the ancient world…
At every biblical city we have visited so far, we see this sign often. You will also often see just a 'circle' or a circle with just a 'x'
(cross wise) in it. Now whether that was hot the sign started and evolved or it was just time to run before a Roman soldier got you is another question! Early Christians appeared to have used this sign as a way to communicate to other followers of Jesus that there were more.
Once again keep in mind that believe or even symphosizing with Christians meant almost certain public death.
This is likely carved in the stone between AD 60 and AD 313 when Constantine canonised the Bible or God’s Holy Scriptures. If this is true, this is one of the oldest, albeit in graffiti form, Christian elements in The Forum of Rome still visible till this day!

TWSL Travel Vlog - Majestic Rome & all its Must Sees
Rome. Truly a majestic place rife with history and culture. Once home to the Roman Empire and the great gladiators, the Eternal City has underwent a significant shift and evolved into the prominent commune it is today. A place of great fascination and splendid vistas, Rome offers a great deluge of heritage and extravagance that has made the city a hub of tourist activity and fervor such that Rome ranks at the number 13th in terms of the most visited places of the world.
Rome makes for an epic experience, particularly as a weekend getaway and touring the city is a daily adventure, providing new insight into the Roman culture and way of life that differs somewhat from the other countries around the world. A trip through the ancient icons and the ruins left behind offer a glance into a time long forgotten.

Places to see in ( Rome - Italy ) Palazzo Barberini
Places to see in ( Rome - Italy ) Palazzo Barberini
The Palazzo Barberini (English: Barberini Palace) is a 17th-century palace in Rome, facing the Piazza Barberini in Rione Trevi. It houses the Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Antica. The sloping site had formerly been occupied by a garden-vineyard of the Sforza family, in which a palazzetto had been built in 1549. The sloping site passed from one cardinal to another during the sixteenth century, with no project fully getting off the ground.
When Cardinal Alessandro Sforza met financial hardships, the still semi-urban site was purchased in 1625 by Maffeo Barberini, of the Barberini family, who became Pope Urban VIII. Three great architects worked to create the Palazzo, each contributing his own style and character to the building. Carlo Maderno, then at work extending the nave of St Peter's, was commissioned to enclose the Villa Sforza within a vast Renaissance block along the lines of Palazzo Farnese; however, the design quickly evolved into a precedent-setting combination of an urban seat of princely power combined with a garden front that had the nature of a suburban villa with a semi-enclosed garden.
Maderno began in 1627, assisted by his nephew Francesco Borromini. When Maderno died in 1629, Borromini was passed over and the commission was awarded to Bernini, a young prodigy then better known as a sculptor. Borromini stayed on regardless and the two architects worked together, albeit briefly, on this project and at the Palazzo Spada. Works were completed by Bernini in 1633. After the Wars of Castro and the death of Urban VIII, the palace was confiscated by Pamphili Pope Innocent X and was only returned to the Barberini in 1653.
The palazzo is disposed around a forecourt centered on Bernini's grand two-storey hall backed by an oval salone, with an extended wing dominating the piazza, which lies on a lower level. At the rear, a long wing protected the garden from the piazza below, above which it rose from a rusticated basement that was slightly battered like a military bastion. The main block presents three tiers of great arch-headed windows, like glazed arcades, a formula that was more Venetian than Roman. On the uppermost floor, Borromini's windows are set in a false perspective that suggests extra depth, a feature that has been copied into the 20th century. Flanking the hall, two sets of stairs lead to the piano nobile, a large squared staircase by Bernini to the left and a smaller oval staircase by Borromini to the right.
As well as Borromini's false-perspective window reveals, other influential aspects of Palazzo Barberini that were repeated throughout Europe include the unit of a central two-storey hall backed by an oval salone and the symmetrical wings that extended forward from the main block to create a cour d'honneur.
The salon ceiling is graced by Pietro da Cortona's masterpiece, the Baroque fresco of the Allegory of Divine Providence and Barberini Power. This vast panegyric allegory became highly influential in guiding decoration for palatial and church ceilings; its influence can be seen in other panoramic scenes such as the frescoed ceilings at Sant'Ignazio (by Pozzo); or those at Villa Pisani at Stra, the throne room of the Royal Palace of Madrid, and the Ca' Rezzonico in Venice (by Tiepolo). Also in the palace is a masterpiece by Andrea Sacchi, a contemporary critic of the Cortona style, Divine Wisdom.
The rooms of the piano nobile have frescoed ceilings by other seventeenth-century artists like Giuseppe Passeri and Andrea Camassei, plus, in the museum collection, precious detached frescoes by Polidoro da Caravaggio and his lover Maturino da Firenze. The garden is known as a giardino segreto (secret garden), for its concealment from an outsider's view. It houses a monument to Bertel Thorwaldsen, who had a studio in the nearby Teatro delle Quattro Fontane in 1822-1834.

Places to see in ( Rome - Italy ) Foro di Cesare
Places to see in ( Rome - Italy ) Foro di Cesare
The Forum of Caesar, also known as Forum Iulium or Forum Julium, Forum Caesaris, is a forum built by Julius Caesar near the Forum Romanum in Rome in 46 BC. Caesar decided to construct a forum bearing his name in the northeast section of the Forum Romanum, of which he purchased a very expensive, select amount of parcels of land in that area.
Forum construction began in 54 BC, and it was dedicated to Caesar and his deeds in 46 BC upon completion. Some scholars, however, believe that Augustus furnished the west side with the shops and offices that were considered part of the Forum of Caesar, therefore being the one to see its completion. The Forum spanned from the Argiletum on the southeast side of the Forum Romanum to the Atrium Libertatis and spanned 160 meters by 75 meters. As part of the dedication, lavish games were offered and funded by Caesar, indicating the staggering cost and thus the personal interest that Caesar had invested in the project.
The Forum of Caesar originally meant an expansion of the Forum Romanum. The Forum, however, evolved so that it served two additional purposes. As Caesar became more and more involved in this project, the Forum became a place for public business that was related to the Senate in addition to a shrine for Caesar himself as well as Venus Genetrix.
Before his assassination, Caesar would have the Senate meet him before his temple, an act deemed very unpopular by the Senate. The Forum of Caesar also had an effect on the Curia, which Caesar began to reconstruct in 44 BC. This reconstruction moved the Forum of Caesar much closer to the Curia. The ten tabernae located on the western side of the Forum and its now close approximation to the Senate house symbolized the unity that Caesar felt between himself and the Senate.
Caesar also placed a statue of his favourite horse in front of the temple. Following his assassination, a statue of Caesar riding this horse was added. Caesar (gens Julia) claimed descent from Venus through his ancestor Julus. The Temple of Venus Genetrix was completed after Caesar's assassination by Roman senators, which included lavish games in reference to Caesar's original dedication to the Forum. Caesar had plans for this temple well in advance, having dedicated the construction of a temple to Venus Victrix at the climactic Battle of Pharsalus in 48 BC, though never being able to see its completion. This original dedication was done because it was Pompey's favourite goddess, and Caesar hoped to gain the goddess's favour before the battle against Pompey.

Italian Grocery Shopping Essentials | Giada De Laurentiis
My favorite products and brands to stock your kitchen.
Grocery stores have come a long way since I was a kid. Back then, you couldn't even find decent dry pasta in the local supermarket, and any time a relative came to visit from Italy it was like a culinary Christmas - half their suitcase would be loaded up with pantry staples! Today, Italian food has been popular for long enough that there's a hungry market for basics like pasta and canned tomatoes imported from our big Italian brands, and lots of smaller American companies making great Italian-style products.
But while supermarkets have evolved, there are still some hard-to-find products that are essential in my kitchen. I'm lucky enough to have a fantastic Italian grocery store, Bay Cities Italian Deli, just around the corner from my house, and they stock absolutely everything I need - and plenty more! I could wander the aisles in there for hours. If you don't happen to have a good import shop in your town, never fear! The internet is an amazing resource for imported foods from around the world, from Tunisian spices to Tuscan olive oil. Stock up on these essentials, and you'll be ready to throw together an authentically Italian meal in a snap!

Wine tasting & food tour Rome’s Rooftops
A wine and food tasting on some of the most beautiful rooftops overlooking the Eternal City. What better way to spend an evening in Rome?
This amazing new tour by Eden Walks may be the best tasting experience out there right now – a sampling of 5 different Italian wines in the most exclusive, well-known establishments in Rome. Each carefully selected to create a truly unique experience that will make for the most memorable evening. And if you could possibly want for more – delicious food accompaniments for each glass of the good stuff.
You will be introduced to an array of wines, ranging in complexity from light to full-bodied, while learning the history behind each. Your guide will even share the secrets and scandals behind the beautiful places that become the backdrop of your evening.
Understand the difference between Montepulciano di Abruzzo from 1700 compared to other wines, discover Chianti’s 300-year old history and become acquainted with the unknown treasure that is Morellino di Scansano. All while savoring the many eatables typical of Rome. Learn how Roman cuisine has evolved, yet still managed to hold on to their traditions these last 2,000 years.
This wonderful wine pairing begins on Borromini Terrace where you will sip on an exquisite glass of Morellino di Scansano, a delicious but lesser-known DOCG red from the Tuscany region. And the perfect complement to that- a wonderful selection of ricotta and mozzarella cheese, toasted bread, and olive oil from nearby Sabina (part of the Lazio region).
Your education continues to the Relais Hotel Rooftop. Nibble on some more delicious cheese and salami as you enjoy your second glass – a Montepulciano, the popular and extremely tasty medium-bodied red synonymous with the Abruzzo region.
Then sample the two most famous pastas in Rome – Cacio e Pepe and Amatriciana, appropriately paired with a glass of Chianti. It’s no wonder that this earthy, rustic red is the most recognized Italian wine in the world.

Your next taste is Carciofi alla Giudia. This deep-fried artichoke recipe has deep roots, originating from the largest Jewish community in Italy. And to this day is still one of the best-known dishes in Roman cuisine. And to aid in your digestion, your generous meal will be topped off with some limoncello. Also a great way to save some room for the last two stops on this decadent Italian wine and food tasting around Rome.
Visit one of the most authentic places to enjoy Sicilian desserts and delicacies, I Dolci di Nonna Vincenza. The homemade cannoli here is out of this world.
Your evening concludes in true Italian-fashion, with some café at one of the most popular coffee bars in Rome. Sant'Eustachio Il Caffè has been around since 1938, made famous for its home-roast beans using water from the Rome’s ancient aqueducts.
This wine tasting food tour is a unique experience indeed – and definitely my kind of education. Learning and tasting my way around the delightful history of Roman food and wine.
Colosseum the ancient wonder
The Colosseum or Coliseum, also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre is an oval amphitheatre in the centre of the city of Rome, Italy. Built of concrete and sand, it is the largest amphitheatre ever built. The Colosseum is situated just east of the Roman Forum. Construction began under the emperor Vespasian in AD 72 and was completed in AD 80 under his successor and heir Titus. Further modifications were made during the reign of Domitian (81–96). These three emperors are known as the Flavian dynasty, and the amphitheatre was named in Latin for its association with their family name (Flavius).
The Colosseum could hold, it is estimated, between 50,000 and 80,000 spectators, having an average audience of some 65,000 it was used for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles such as mock sea battles (for only a short time as the hypogeum was soon filled in with mechanisms to support the other activities), animal hunts, executions, re-enactments of famous battles, and dramas based on Classical mythology. The building ceased to be used for entertainment in the early medieval era. It was later reused for such purposes as housing, workshops, quarters for a religious order, a fortress, a quarry, and a Christian shrine.
Although partially ruined because of damage caused by earthquakes and stone-robbers, the Colosseum is still an iconic symbol of Imperial Rome. It is one of Rome's most popular tourist attractions and also has links to the Roman Catholic Church, as each Good Friday the Pope leads a torchlit Way of the Cross procession that starts in the area around the Colosseum.
The Colosseum's original Latin name was Amphitheatrum Flavium, often anglicized as Flavian Amphitheatre. The building was constructed by emperors of the Flavian dynasty, following the reign of Nero. This name is still used in modern English, but generally the structure is better known as the Colosseum. In antiquity, Romans may have referred to the Colosseum by the unofficial name Amphitheatrum Caesareum (with Caesareum an adjective pertaining to the title Caesar), but this name may have been strictly poetic as it was not exclusive to the Colosseum; Vespasian and Titus, builders of the Colosseum, also constructed an amphitheater of the same name in Puteoli (modern Pozzuoli).
The name Colosseum has long been believed to be derived from a colossal statue of Nero nearby (the statue of Nero was named after the Colossus of Rhodes). This statue was later remodeled by Nero's successors into the likeness of Helios (Sol) or Apollo, the sun god, by adding the appropriate solar crown. Nero's head was also replaced several times with the heads of succeeding emperors. Despite its pagan links, the statue remained standing well into the medieval era and was credited with magical powers. It came to be seen as an iconic symbol of the permanence of Rome.
In the 8th century, a famous epigram attributed to the Venerable Bede celebrated the symbolic significance of the statue in a prophecy that is variously quoted: Quamdiu stat Colisæus, stat et Roma; quando cadet colisæus, cadet et Roma; quando cadet Roma, cadet et mundus (as long as the Colossus stands, so shall Rome; when the Colossus falls, Rome shall fall; when Rome falls, so falls the world). This is often mistranslated to refer to the Colosseum rather than the Colossus (as in, for instance, Byron's poem Childe Harold's Pilgrimage). However, at the time that the Pseudo-Bede wrote, the masculine noun coliseus was applied to the statue rather than to what was still known as the Flavian amphitheatre.
The Colossus did eventually fall, possibly being pulled down to reuse its bronze. By the year 1000 the name Colosseum had been coined to refer to the amphitheatre. The statue itself was largely forgotten and only its base survives, situated between the Colosseum and the nearby Temple of Venus and Roma.
The name further evolved to Coliseum during the Middle Ages. In Italy, the amphitheatre is still known as il Colosseo, and other Romance languages have come to use similar forms such as Coloseumul (Romanian), le Colisée (French), el Coliseo (Spanish) and o Coliseu (Portuguese).

Milan An Evolving City | 4K drone footage of Milano Skyline in Italy
Milan, An Evolving City 2 @
Cinematic 4k footage of the evolving architectural panorama or the City of Milan, Italy. Milan, a metropolis in Italy's northern Lombardy region, is a global capital of fashion and design. Home to the national stock exchange, it’s a financial hub also known for its high-end restaurants and shops. The Gothic Duomo di Milano cathedral and the Santa Maria delle Grazie convent, housing Leonardo da Vinci’s mural “The Last Supper,” testify to centuries of art and culture.
The famous Galleria shopping center has been the baseline for so many malls across the World. The video also features the Gae Aulenti Plaza with the iconic Unicredit Tower and the Vertical Forest building. On the other side of town you can see the Generali Tower, part of the CityLife complex, designed by the late Zaha Hadid. Also featured is the Castello Sforzesco or Sforza Castle as well as La Scala theater, the World's most famous venue.
Milan, the capital of Lombardy, has a population of 1.3 million people. It is the biggest industrial city of Italy with many different industrial sectors. It is a magnetic point for designers, artists, photographers and models. Milan has an ancient city centre with high and interesting buildings and palazzos, which is why so many people from all over the world want to see the city of glamour.
Milan's climate is predominantly Mediterranean: Alpine in the far north; hot and dry in the south. Winter in Milan is relatively mild but foggy, with temperatures ranging from zero to 8 degrees Celsius. Summer can be very humid with brief thunderstorms; temperatures range from 14 to 29 degrees. From March through April temperatures range from 6 to 18 degrees. From October through November they range from 6 to 17 degrees.
Milan’s origin goes back to 400 B.C., when Gauls settled and defeated the Etruscans.
In 222 B.C. the city was conquered by Romans and was annexed to the Roman Empire. After 313 A.D., the year of the Edict of Tolerance towards Christianity, many churches were built and the first bishop was appointed: Ambrogio was such an influential person that the church became the Ambrosian Church (7 December is a holiday to honor Sant’Ambrogio). In 1300 the Visconti family which are noblemen from Bergamo, Cremona, Piacenza, Brescia and Parma ruled and brought a period of glory and wealth to the city. The Duomo was built in 1386 and became the symbol of Milan.
The Sforza family assumed the Castle and the power of the Visconti family and finally Milan achieved peace after many years of battles against Venice and Florence. Under the Sforza duchy the city began the development of sciences, art and literature. Ludovico il Moro (Ludovico Sforza) called Leonardo da Vinci and “il Bramante” to his court.

We try to leave jargon out of our videos, but if you want to learn more about this topic, here are some handy keywords to get your googling started:
Biodiversity - the variety of genes, species, and ecosystems
Conservation - ethical use and protection of valuable natural resources (e.g. trees, minerals, wildlife, water)
Ecosystem - a biological community of interacting organisms and their physical environment
Ecosystem services - benefits people obtain from ecosystems (four categories: supporting, provisioning, regulating, and cultural)
Richness - the number of species in an ecological community, landscape, or region
Pollinators - animals that help plants reproduce by moving pollen from male flowers to female flowers
Pollution - the introduction of contaminants into the natural environment (e.g. chemicals, particles, noise, heat, light)
