A latrine at Hadrian’s Villa shows how Roman concrete survived for 2,000 years For centuries, Roman buildings have outlasted many modern structures. Temples, bridges, aqueducts, and walls still stand after nearly 2,000 years, while some concrete buildings from the last century already show serious damage. A new study points to another reason for this long life...

Well of Junia Rufina reveals new clues about a mysterious Roman woman An ancient well in the Roman city of Butrint is giving historians a fresh view of public life almost 2,000 years ago. New research suggests the Well of Junia Rufina served far more than a daily need for water. The monument links one wealthy woman to a period of major growth in public works during the rule of Emperor Hadrian.
