Palatine Hill is one of the seven hills of Rome and is said to be the birthplace of Rome, according to legend, it was actually where Romulus, the founder of Rome, built his city. However, Palatine Hill served as the residence of Rome's Emperors, not where they lived in opulent luxury. The Emperor's actual palace, known as the Domus Aurea or Golden House, was built by Emperor Nero after a devastating fire in 64 CE. The Palatine Hill did house several Imperial palaces and residences, including the Palace of Domitian and the Palace of Septimius Severus, but not the grand Domus Aurea.
