| | Ostia - Introduction |
 | | Several ancient authors, beginning with Cicero, state that Ostia was founded by Ancus Marcius as a colony (colonia). | | | On the other hand Constantine donated a Christian basilica to Ostia (discovered in the 1990's by Michael Heinzelmann). | | | Through immigration and the import of slaves the population rose to fifty thousand, including seventeen thousand slaves. |

| | Before you enter Ostia Antica proper, outside the city walls, you will find the burial tombs of the Romans.

You can see the niches into which the crematorium jars of the wealthier citizens were placed. | | | The merchant area is the first area with buildings on the right as you enter. These initial buildings were the warehouses to store the materials before shipping them to Rome or to other parts of the empire. | | | Once you have taken a peek at the tombs, you will walk about 20 yards and see the Winged Victory statue on your left. Winged Victory was an important goddess to the Romans and it is fitting that she be at the entrance to the city. |
