The Colli Albani (English: Alban Hills) is a region of volcanic hills located south of the city of Rome in Italy.
By the early 1500s Cesare Borgia established a weapons factory in the area, manufacturing chariot-mounted machine guns designed by Leonardo da Vinci. In 1502 the Assassin Ezio Auditore da Firenze broke into the factory, burning the machine's plans and destroying the two prototype machines.[1]

Colli Albani
These volcanic hills stand 20 kilometres southeast of Rome. The dominant peak, Monte Cavo, has two small calderas, both containing lakes, one of which is called Lago di Nemi. The summit was often the site for celebrations by Roman generals after victories during the era when it was illegal for them to do so in Rome.[1]
Lago di Nemi
Roughly 30 kilometres south of Rome, this small volcanic lake is named for the largest town in its vicinity, Nemi. It is most renowned for its massive sunken Roman ships, the larger of which are thought to have been elaborate floating palaces of the 1st century. Some of the technology found on these ships was believed to have been invented only recently, including complex heating systems and plumbing for baths.[1]
