Don’t miss video: Approximately a meter-long Roman marble sculpture was discovered in Toledo’s Old District while undergoing repairs on a building

Α Roman marble statue, about a metre in length, has been discovered during renovation works of a building in the historic center of Toledo, in the square Αmador de los Rios, under Navarro Ledesma Street, where an underground gallery (cryptoporticus) about thirty metres in length, believed to part of a large Roman civic building, was also discovered last February.
