The Marausa Shipwreck, a roman merchant vessel the late 3rd - early 4th century A.D.
The wreck, which was found off Marausa beach near Trapani, Sicily in 1999, was excavated and recovered in 2011 and its restoration was carried out by the society "Legni e Segni della Memoria".
The investigation and excavation (Photo: R. Rinaldi in : The Marausa Wreck, Sicily: interim report on a boat built in the Western Imperial Roman tradition, 2016
The ship had a well-preserved cargo and was about 27 metres long and 9 metres wide, making it the largest wreck from this period ever recovered from Italian waters. It was on its way from North Africa to the coast of Sicily but originally stranded in shallow water while trying to enter the Birgi, a navigable river, and sank.
Reassembled planking and fragments of the Marausa ship (x)
The double central keel of the ship was recovered, allowing the structure of the deck to be reconstructed, which consisted of staggered platforms. The ribbing of ash wood was located between the outer hull of the ship (made of ash wood) and the deck. The cargo consisted of cylindrical African amphorae lined with pitch, probably used for wine or fish sauce as well as tubuli and other ceramics. The wreck and its find are displayed at the museum in Marsala, since 2015.

THE Pantheon (Latin: pantheum) is the best-preserved building from ancient Rome and was completed in c. 125 CE. Its magnificent concrete dome is a lasting testimony to the genius of Roman architects and as the building stands virtually intact it offers a unique opportunity for the modern visitor to step back 2,000 years and experience the glory that was Rome.
The purpose of the building is not known for certain but the name, porch and pediment decoration suggest a temple of some sort. However, no cult is known to all of the gods and so the Pantheon may have been designed as a place where the emperor could make public appearances in a setting which reminded onlookers of his divine status, equal with the other gods of the Roman pantheon and his deified emperor predecessors.
The temple of Bacchus, Baalbek, Lebanon commissioned by Emperor Antoninus Pius (between 150 and 250 years) is a colossal construction of Roman imperial architecture that still stands 1,800 years later.
