Numisia Procula

Tor Marancia lies between the Via Ostiense and the Via Appia Antica to the south of the catacombs of Domitilla at the crossing of the Via Ardeatina and the Via delle Sette Chiese, in an area largely built upon today. The excavation work was carried out between April 1817 and April 1823. A large villa made up of two adjacent buildings was unearthed. The buildings as recorded lay about 750 metres apart. Two lead plaques fi stulae (CIL XIV (14) 7459) record the names of two noble women Munatia Procula and Numisia Procula dated to the second century A.D. There are other suggestions that a woman of imperial descent Flavia Domitilla owned this land.3 A temple of Dionysius was also discovered close by the villa.
