An imperial Roman villa has been
found along the banks of the Tiber near the Milvian Bridge,
archaeologists said Tuesday.
Digs have uncovered a large floor area in 'opus sectile',
decorated with "extraordinary" multicoloured marble floral
motifs, they said.
The beauty of the floor has led experts to believe that the
rest of the building was full of precious decorations.
The villa's setting so close to the river is unusual,
archaeologists said.
