About

Largo di Torre Argentina. Not, as commonly believed, named after the country but after a tower that used to stand in the area. Four Roman Republican-era temples, Pompey's theater and a Roman public toilet have been excavated. The largo is also home to a large number of cats which are tended by the local animal rights organization. (Purportedly a jab at Mussolini who excavated the area and is said to have hated cats.)
