Left: Visual reconstruction of the ancient Portus in Ostia, a port in the Tiber Delta first contemplated by Julius Caesar, then built by Emperor Claudius (who didn't get to see its completion) to ensure the vital supplies of grain even in winter and later enlarged by Emperor Trajan.
Right: The modern remains of the port's basin, now several hundred meters inland.
