In the small town of Sarsina in Italy, groundbreakers digging to build a sports complex and supermarket unexpectedly discovered an extremely rare Roman Temple dedicated to Jupiter, Minerva, and Juno. The temple is well-preserved and dates back to the last century BCE. The sandstone and limestone blocks that make up its foundation and podium remain in a remarkable state of preservation. The discovery has brought attention to Sarsina, which has not seen such spotlight in almost 2,000 years. Plans for the sports complex and supermarket will have to be altered to preserve the temple.
