Answer 1

The Roman Forum was a news center for the Romans. It was an area beneath Palatine Hill where Romans conducted much of their business. For politicians, it even had a rostra where they could stand and give important speeches.

However, much of the forum hasn't been excavated yet. Archeologists are still working on preserving the Forum and finding new sections of it.
