ISOLA TIBERINA (ROMA, ITALY)
ISOLA TIBERINA, Roma, Lazio, Italia. L'Isola Tiberina (anche nota come Insula Tiberina, Insula Tiberis, Insula Aesculapi, Isola dei Due Ponti, Licaonia, Isola di San Bartolomeo, o semplicemente Insula), nata in modo alluvionale è l'unica isola urbana del Tevere nel centro di Roma. Nella Forma Urbis Severiana aveva nome di inter duos pontes. La leggenda vuole che l'isola si sia formata nel 510 a.C. dai covoni (i fasci di spighe) del grano mietuto a Campo Marzio di proprietà del re Tarquinio il Superbo al momento della rivolta: alcuni studi proverebbero che l'isola ha origini molto anteriori all'evento. Poco coinvolta nelle vicissitudini della città, per questa ragione ospitò il tempio di Esculapio, dio della medicina, il cui culto fu introdotto nel 292 a.C. in seguito ad una pestilenza. Nella prima metà del I secolo a.C. venne monumentalizzata in opera quadrata, parallelamente alla costruzione dei ponti Fabricio e Cestio, e del Vicus Censorius che li collegava al suo interno: si riprendeva la forma di una nave, di cui oggi è ancora visibile la prua, con blocchi di travertino che rivestono l'interno in peperino e alcune decorazioni raffiguranti Esculapio con il suo serpente e una testa di toro, forse utile per gli ormeggi. Al centro vi era un obelisco a raffigurare un albero maestro simbolico, ricordo dell'arrivo nel 292 a.C. da Epidauro del culto della divinità. Due anni prima infatti alcuni saggi si erano recati nella città greca per consultare la divinità dopo una grave pestilenza: il mito vuole che un serpente, simbolo del dio, si allontanò dal tempio e salì sulla nave ed una volta giunti a Roma lo stesso animale scese sull'isola stabilendovisi; dopo la costruzione di un tempio dedicato al dio, si racconta che la peste svanì miracolosamente.

Rome (/ˈroʊm/, Italian: Roma [ˈroːma] Latin: Rōma) is a city and special comune (named Roma Capitale) in Italy. Rome is the capital of Italy and region of Lazio. With 2.9 million residents in 1,285 km2 (496.1 sq mi), it is also the country's largest and most populated comune and fourth-most populous city in the European Union by population within city limits. The Metropolitan City of Rome has a population of 4.3 million residents. The city is located in the central-western portion of the Italian Peninsula, within Lazio (Latium), along the shores of Tiber river. Vatican City is an independent country within the city boundaries of Rome, the only existing example of a country within a city: for this reason Rome has been often defined as capital of two states.
Rome has the status of a global city.In 2011, Rome was the 18th-most-visited city in the world, 3rd most visited in the European Union, and the most popular tourist attraction in Italy. Its historic centre is listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. Monuments and museums such as the Vatican Museums and the Colosseum are among the world's most visited tourist destinations with both locations receiving millions of tourists a year. Rome hosted the 1960 Summer Olympics and is the seat of United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).

The Tiber Island is the only island in the part of the Tiber river which runs through Rome. Tiber Island is located in the southern bend of the Tiber. The island is boat-shaped, approximately 270 metres (890 feet) long and 67 metres (220 feet) wide, and has been connected with bridges to both sides of the river since antiquity. Being a seat of the ancient temple of Asclepius and later a hospital, the island is associated with medicine and healing. The Fatebenefratelli Hospital founded in the 16th century, and the Basilica of St. Bartholomew on the Island dating from the 10th century are located on the island.
The island has been linked to the rest of Rome by two bridges since antiquity, and was once called Insula Inter-Duos-Pontes which means the island between the two bridges. The Ponte Fabricio, the only original bridge in Rome, connects the island from the northeast to the Field of Mars in the rione Sant'Angelo (left bank). The Ponte Cestio, of which only some original parts survived, connects the island to Trastevere on the south (right bank).
There is a legend which says that after the fall of the hated tyrant Tarquinius Superbus (510 BC), the angry Romans threw his body into the Tiber. His body then settled onto the bottom where dirt and silt accumulated around it and eventually formed Tiber Island. Another version of the legend says that the people gathered up the wheat and grain of their despised ruler and threw it into the Tiber, where it eventually became the foundation of the island.
In ancient times, before Christianity spread through Rome, Tiber Island was avoided because of the negative stories associated with it. Only the worst criminals and the contagiously ill were condemned there. This however changed when a temple was built on the island.
Tiber Island was once the location of an ancient temple to Aesculapius, the Greek god of medicine and healing. Accounts say that in 293 BC, there was a great plague in Rome. Upon consulting the Sibyl, the Roman Senate was instructed to build a temple to Aesculapius, the Greek god of healing, and sent a delegation to Epidauros to obtain a statue of the deity. The delegation went on board a ship to sail out and obtain a statue.
Following their belief system, they obtained a snake from a temple and put it on board their ship. It immediately curled itself around the ship's mast and this was deemed as a good sign by them. Upon their return up the Tiber river, the snake slithered off the ship and swam onto the island. They believed that this was a sign from Aesculapius, a sign which meant that he wanted his temple to be built on that island.
