While it might not interest many, I have a growing obsession with ruins.

“Using satellite imaging, the outlines of the ruins can be clearly seen about three feet below the earth in what is now open countryside.

The discovery of the extensive town was found at Altino, known in Roman times as Altinum, more than seven miles north of Venice, and close to Marco Polo airport.

The ruins include streets, palaces, temples, squares and theatres, as well as a large amphitheatre and canals, showing Altinum was once a wealthy and thriving city.”

Attila rolled through in 452 & leveled it. Some of the survivors moved elsewhere in the marshes & established the modern Venice.

See the full article: Ancestor city

Then go to Google Earth & search for Altino. It’s NE of Venice. Zoom in to about 1600 ft or less. Starting at the Google Altino marker & immediately to its left. What can you see?

I’ll give you a hint:
