Aquileia, located in northeastern Italy, is an ancient Roman city of immense historical and archaeological significance. Founded in 181 BCE as a Roman colony, it became one of the largest and wealthiest cities of the Early Roman Empire. The city served as a major trading center and strategic military outpost due to its position at the intersection of Mediterranean sea routes and land routes to northern Europe.

Aquileia's cultural heritage is particularly evident in its archaeological remains, including one of the largest and best-preserved early Christian floor mosaics in the Western world, found in its magnificent Basilica. The city's archaeological area, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site, contains remarkable Roman ruins, including the forum, river port, and extensive burial grounds.

Today, Aquileia continues to be an important center for archaeological research and cultural preservation, with numerous artifacts and architectural remains that provide insights into Roman civilization and early Christian art.
