Talk:Gabii

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article incorporates text from the Encyclopædia Britannica Eleventh Edition, now in the public domain.

This is quite an insightful and detailed piece. I just have a few comments that might help clarify this page a little more.

1) "This was advantageous.....except south". South of what?

2) "People had inhabited the area that would come to hold the city since the middle bronze age". This sentence is unclear.

3) "Gabii was the ally of Rome after 493 BC". How about just "an ally"?

There is a lot of information here, maybe a couple of headings would help the readers? I was thinking: general info, Gabii is the past, Gabii now. I'm sure you could make it sound more elegant.

I spotted one spelling mistake: 'repubblican'.

This article is very interesting and informative. I appreciate the detail that you have included, and coming from several different angles or perspectives gives the article a sense of validity. Seeing that you have already taken the suggestions of the above commenters, there is not much left to say. Your categorization is very strong and clarifies your information. The only suggestions I would make are fairly simple. If you could include a see also section, that would help for even further clarification. It would be up to you what articles you would deem relavent, But I would suggest Ancient Rome, or Roman Ruins. Also, I don't know if you are willing to bother with complicated image stuff (I had some problems with it) but Vroma.org has a lot of images, and if you could include one of the Ruins, it would give the page a more appealing look.
