1. L'Olivo, Albero della Salute e della Prosperità / The Olive, Tree of Health and Prosperity Marker
Il Colle Palatino, cuore dell'Impero Romano, si offre come contesto ideale per promuovere il consumo dell'olio, un ingrediente che è il cuore della dieta mediterranea e, fin dalle origini, una delle fonti principali della prosperità dei Romani. II Parco Archeologico del Colosseo, la Coldiretti Lazio e UNAPROL sono i promotori di un progetto didattico per la promozione della cultura dell'Olio Extra Vergine di Oliva [EVO] attraverso un percorso didattico per la conoscenza delle caratteristiche della coltivazione dell'olivo e il posto che questa antica pianta rivestiva nella cultura antica.

The Parco archeologico del Colosseo has teamed up with Coldiretti Lazio and Unaprol to promote a project to raise awareness of EVOO culture through an educational itinerary
