In the very beginning, Rome was home on the Tiber River. Through time, the seven small hills of the area, Palatine, Aventine, Capitoline, Quirinal, Viminal, Caelian, and Esquiline all became what we call
Rome today. These hills were all villages or towns divided by marshes that over the centuries were drained and people began to call the area home. Finally, even the hills to the north Monte Mario and Monte Sacro were also included into the boundaries of Rome. Today, Rome is a vast metropolitan city with historical ruins and artifacts dotting the countryside.
