English:
Panoramic place of corporations taken from the top of the theater
The place of the corporations, located near the theater, was surrounded by a portico under which were 70 offices of the companies (shipowners, traders) which did business in Ostia. Mosaics placed in front of each desk served as signs (1st century). In the center of the square was a temple attributed to Ceres, goddess of agriculture and harvest.
