Ljubljana and Emona

The Slovenian capital of Ljubljana looks like a thoroughly modern, central European city. Yet just below the surface – literally – the secrets of the Roman settlement of Emona, Ljubljana’s predecessor, are being uncovered. The Roman city was founded in 14 AD under Emperor Augustus. Now, as Ljubljana prepares to mark the 2,000-year anniversary of Emona’s settlement with a series of exhibitions and Roman-themed events, new discoveries are revealing more information about the city’s early inhabitants.
