Olsojente: The Tarpeian Rock (rupes Tarpeia) was a steep cliff of the southern summit of the Capitoline Hill, overlooking the Roman Forum in Ancient Rome. It was used during the Roman Republic as an execution site. Murderers and traitors, if convicted by the quaestores parricidii, were flung from the cliff to their deaths. Those who had a mental or significant physical disability also suffered the same fate as they were thought to have been cursed by the gods.
From Wiki We'll just be walking past it...
Is it safe for CS members to go anywhere near this rock?

I just thought as a matter of courtesy and respect that would be the thing to do, un-sign when you're not going, but by all means, stay on the sign up if it matters to you, and makes you happy...
Olsojente: Thank you!!Enjoy your trip in september!!!
Thank you, I will. I have friends and relatives dotted about all over Italy. So handy!
Besides, that way I also see the non-touristy places, which is what I love. And this time I return as an Italian citizen, too. That will be special to me.
Piazza del Popolo is a large oval square near the Borghese Park. It features an authentic obelisk from Heliopolis, Egypt. On the north side the square is dominated by the Porta del Popolo, which leads to the Via Flaminia. Since the Via Flaminia was built in AD 220 to connect Rome with the Adriatic coast, many travellers entered the Rome via the square.
