Mysterious Facts and Discoveries of Ancient Rome
Burn, Baby, Burn!

Some say Nero disliked the constructions in the city, while others said he did it so he could build the Golden House or Domus Aurea that features the Colossus of Nero statue. So it falls down to this one question, did Nero really play the fiddle while Rome burned? Experts say this is highly unlikely because the fiddle wasn’t even invented at the time.
