摘要:In 2005, Trieste University began the excavations in an area set along the via Gemina, where one of the most important residential insulae of the ancient city is situated, close to the forum and the river harbour. Brusin had already investigated this site in the 1930s, while more recent diagonal trenches had been exca-vated by Bertacchi closer to the area in question. The last campaigns have unearthed a series of structures, that, due to a complex sequence of cuts, post antique and contemporary interventions, have proved very dif-ficult to interpret, especially concerning the northern rooms of the domus. Still it has been possible to identi-fy and map several of the structures described in Brusin’s excavation records; among them the most rele-vant is the mortar layer which originally sustained a mosaic floor removed after the 1930s campaigns. Fu-ture research will aim to clarify the function this part of the building, to verify the presence of a second en-trance and therefore how this area was connected to the road and the shops and, if possible, also to under-stand the relationship between this section and the rest of the domus.
