ESQUILINO
The name "esquiline" derives from that of the castrum of the Equites Singulares Augusti (imperial horse guard) since on the Celian near the current Via Tasso was their barracks (castra priora equitum singularium). The emperor Septimius Severus built a large new complex called Castra Nova equitum singularium (New Barracks of the chosen knights) where today the Basilica of San Giovanni in Laterano stands.
The Esquiline is one of the districts of the historic center. Of ancient urbanization (with Palatina, Collina and Suburrana it was one of the four regions of Servian Rome), with its three hills (Cispius, Oppius and Fagutalis) it included the entire area today attributed to the Monti district until the regionalization of Augustus.
The However, the territory of the current district has always been a sort of border territory of the city, understood as the historic center: initially on the edge of the Servian Walls, of which it contained the agger, in the imperial age it was included in the Aurelian Walls, but always remained marginal to the city properly understood, so much so that one of the etymologies of the name makes it derive from the Latin term esquiliae, which indicated the suburbs.
Until Augustus the area beyond the agger of the republican walls was a sort of vast landfill for the city's waste, and also a cemetery, divided into an area for slaves and one for citizens of modest means who could however afford a place in a columbarium. Rodolfo Lanciani describes the discovery and exploration of around seventy of these places, near what is today the Termini station.--ae1c6f191ddc20eaf38b466826bae603!
