Cineteca Nazionale
Cineteca Nazionale is a film archive located in Rome, Italy. It was founded in 1949. By law it manages the so-called legal deposit, with the task of collecting, preserving and disseminating the productions of Italian cinema. It is the only Italian film library that enjoys the right of mandatory legal deposit of all films produced and co-produced in Italy and registered in the Public Film Register held by the SIAE. History Established in 1949, based in Rome, the Cineteca Nazionale preserves all the films of Italian nationality produced since then. It arose from the archival heritage of the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia, which in 1943, had been removed by the Nazi occupiers, losing unique materials. The films, sent to Germany, were lost in the course of World War II and many attempts to trace them in Germany and the Soviet Union after the war were unsuccessful. There are 80,000 films on file, 600,000 photographs, 50,000 posters and the collection of the Italian Association f ...

Lake Martignano
Lake Martignano (Italian: Lago di Martignano), is a small lake in Lazio, Italy north-north-west of Rome, in an extinct crater or maar. Administratively its coast is divided amongst the municipalities of Rome, Anguillara Sabazia and Campagnano di Roma. Overview In ancient times Lake Martignano was part of southern Etruria and called Alsietinus Lacus. Augustus drew from it the Aqua Alsietina; the water was hardly fit to drink, and was mainly intended to supply his naumachia (lake made for a sham naval battle) at Rome, near San Francesco a Ripa, on the right bank of the Tiber, where some traces of the aqueduct were perhaps found in 1720. The course of the aqueduct, which was mainly subterranean, is practically unknown: Frontinus tells us that it received a branch from Lake Bracciano near Careiae ( Galera): and an inscription relating to it was found in this district in 1887. cites F. Barnabei, ''Notizie degli Scavi'', 1887, 181. There is a lawn beach, lake-side cafes and restauran ...
