The Aventine Hill (Latin: Collis Aventinus, Italian: Colle Aventino) is one of the seven hills of Rome. During the Renaissance, it was located in the Antico District.
History[edit | edit source]
One of the seven hills of Rome upon which the ancient city was built, the Aventine was mainly a suburb during the monarchy and early Republic. In 456 BCE, a law was passed, allowing plebeians to own property on the hill, which caused the city to quickly grow beyond its walls.[1]
This rapid expansion made it far more vulnerable to capture by the Gauls. Only after a bloody invasion did the Senate pass a motion to build a new wall encircling the Aventine.[1]
