Ruins from the Roman Empire have been discovered in Piazza Pia, the street in front of the Vatican media office - formerly Vatican Radio - during construction ahead of the 2025 Jubilee in Rome.
According to Italian daily Corriere della Sera, large mosaic floor surfaces have been uncovered, along with four or five rooms of considerable size, believed to be the remains of an ancient clothes washing service.
A human skeleton, thought to be from the 1500s, was also discovered on May 24, adding to the drama around the site.
