...warm periods. The hand-ax layer itself was sprinkled with black pumice, a sure sign of volcanic activity. As Professor Blanc reconstructs it, the earliest Romans lived in a moderately warm climate on the shore of a vast lagoon that.covered the present site of Rome. The Torre site may establish what has long been suspected by Italian paleontologists: that Central Italy is one of earth's oldest inhabited places. Confirmation of this theory depends on Blanc's efforts to find human bones to match the man-made axes. After exploring only a fraction of the Torre site, Blanc...
