The find of a new house belonging to 6th century Rome indicates that Rome was actually somewhat larger in this period than previously thought. The home which seems to have been built for domestic use was located in a region thought to house a necropolis and temple but not part of the city proper.
It was unearthed on the Quirinal hill near the temple discovered in 2013, the house was built on tufa stone and consisted of clay covered wooden walls.
