Ancient Rome, David Rockwell style - Nero's rotating dining hall found? http://www.ArchitectureWeek.com/blogs/link.php?id=45033 "The supposed smoking guns of the recent discovery on the Palatine hill include a 50 foot diameter room, resting on a 13 foot in diameter pillar, with a rotating mechanism underneath - "four spherical mechanisms likely powered by a constant flow of water that would have rotated the structure." Another link on this... New discovery at the domus aurea! http://eternallycool.net/2009/09/new-discovery-at-the-domus-aurea/
