Tiberius' Seaside Villa in Sperlonga

A visit to the imperial Villa of Sperlonga is an amazing opportunity to connect to a specific moment in history by exploring the natural cave along the Lazio coast, adjacent villa and museum that houses the impressive "Hellenistic Baroque" statue groups found on site in 1957. Darius leads you through the grotto and dining experience (central triclinium for the imperial guests located in the central pool of water, surrounded by mythological sculptural groups), and the interpretation of the statuary . There is nothing like this site, tied to a dramatic moment in Tiberius' life, that had an impact on the rest of his reign.

Keep up with the adventures of Darius Arya, the archaeologist with access. History in real life!
