The town of Palestrina (called Praeneste in ancient times) is known for its Archaeological Museum...
... which is housed in a palazzo built atop the ancient Etruscan Sanctuary of Fortuna Primigenia:
The sanctuary was covered up for centuries, but exposed again due to bombs during World War II. The museum contains many items found at the site, including an incredibly detailed mosaic depicting the flooding of the Nile River. Numerous African animals, such as giraffes and hippos, are depicted. Apparently some people think one of the animals resembles a dinosaur, and they actually cite the mosaic as proof that man and dinosaurs coexisted. Unfortunately we were not allowed to take photos of it, so we'll have to share pictures of the town with you instead.
Palestrina is a hill town, hence plenty of steps! The residents probably have strong quadriceps.
