The Antico district (English: Antique district) was one of the four districts of Rome. This district was characterized by its numerous ancient ruins, hilly landscapes, and grass fields, as well as being the district with the fewest buildings, with long roads connecting the villages of the district.
During the early 16th century, the Antico District, like the Centro and Campagna District, came the influence of the Borgia and fell into disrepair. Three Borgia Towers ruled over the Antico District, each guarded by a Borgia captain. By 1503, Ezio Auditore had burned down all of the Borgia Towers and had re-opened most of the shops. He had also reestablished the Thieves guild, La Volpe Addormentata, at the request of fellow Assassin La Volpe, in order to aid him in his war against the Borgia.[1]
Ezio also explored four Lairs of Romulus located in the district. All of them hidden beneath famous landmarks, such as the Colosseo, the Palazzo Laterano, the Piramide Cestia and the Terme di Traiano.[1]
