Archaeologists have found the skeleton of woman buried in the Forum of Rome.
Surprisingly this woman lived 3000 years ago and so she is older than Rome (whose foundation dates back to 753 B.C.)!

Fascinating, but Rome seemed like a natural place for humans to either
live or travel through, being located at a key intersection of the
Tiber and the central part of Italy. Wonder what culture she would have
been part of at this time.

Probably she belonged to pre-urban Latin culture.
