Ancient Rome stands here for the Roman civilisation from the founding of the city in the eighth century BC to the collapse of the Western Roman Empire in the fifth century AD, taking in the Roman Kingdom, the Republic and the Empire. It began as an Italic settlement beside the Tiber and grew to control the whole Italian Peninsula and then most of the Mediterranean lands, at its height reaching from the North African coast and the Iberian and Balkan peninsulas to Anatolia, the Levant and Egypt. Rites, cults, texts and practices are placed here when they belong to the Roman world as a whole rather than to the city alone.
