</font><p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"><font size="3"><span style="color:black;font-family:"Palatino","serif"">Carsulae
was a Roman city that developed in the late third century BCE along the Via
Flaminia, approximately 100 kilometers north of Rome in modern Umbria. The major
public buildings of Carsulae were excavated from 1950 to 1970, but most of the
ancient city still lies undisturbed in what is now a beautiful archaeological
park. The current excavation of the public baths at Carsulae began in
2004. We plan to dedicate the 2013 season to excavating the remainder of
the areas beneath the protective roof, and also to developing a longterm plan
for the conservation and partial restoration of the bath complex.</span><span style="color:black"></span></font></p><font color="#000000" size="3" face="Times New Roman">
