Piazza della Rotonda the "Iseum Campense", a shrine to the Egyptian god Isis that stood to the southeast of the Pantheon. It was rediscovered in 1374 underneath the apse of the nearby Basilica of Santa Maria sopra Minerva. In the mid-15th century, the obelisk had been erected in the small Piazza di San Macuto some 200 meters east of the Pantheon, where it remained until its 1711 move to the Piazza della Rotonda. It is still called the "Obelisco Macutèo" after its previous location. Piazza della Rotonda The Piazza della Rotonda is a piazza (city square) in Rome, Italy, on the south side
Piazza San Marco from the lagoon surging up into the Square. Books Piazza San Marco Piazza San Marco (; ), often known in English as St Mark's Square, is the principal public square of Venice, Italy, where it is generally known just as "la Piazza" ("the Square"). All other urban spaces in the city (except the Piazzetta and the Piazzale Roma) are called "campi" ("fields"). The Piazzetta ("little Piazza/Square") is an extension of the Piazza towards the lagoon in its south east corner (see plan). The two spaces together form the social, religious and political centre of Venice and are commonly considered together.
