The existence of a large Roman building under the town of Predore had been know for some time thanks to a series of chance discoveries during the 20th century that brought to light stretches of wall and areas of mosaic flooring. Only more recently have investigations conducted in advance of building work yielded a clearer picture of its nature, extension and chronology. Excavations carried out between 1998 and 2001 at the Albergo dell’Angelo and in Via Roma, although limited in size, furnished valuable information regarding the building’s history and revealed the opulence of its decoration. In 2003 a large-scale construction project to redevelop the area previously occupied by the Lanza Gomme factory allowed the careful open-area archaeological excavation of about 1000 m2 of the Roman building. This was a villa of considerable size: according to current estimates it covered around 15,000 m2.
