The bridge to the island in the courtyard

(continued from first page)

The second part of Domitian's palace was around another huge courtyard, but this part seems to have been a little more private, for less public parties and meetings. In the middle of the second courtyard, there was an artificial pond, with a little island in the middle of it and a bridge going out to the island.

There were more small rooms, all around the courtyard, for meetings and government offices.
