Butrint Roman Forum

In 44 BC, Rome colonized Butrint. One of the city's greatest periods of prosperity occurred under the Roman Empire. The Roman Forum was constructed in the Augustan period (27 BC-AD 14) and later aggrandized in the 2nd century AD. Numerous baths, fountains, and public buildings were constructed during this period. A prominent and wealthy woman, named Junia Rufina, adorned in marble a spring dedicated to nymphs bearing her name. The Forum came to an end in the late 4th century AD, as a result of a devastating earthquake.
