    This is a clear plagiarism of a Reuters article[0], which should be submitted instead.

    [0] https://www.reuters.com/science/italy-uncovers-basilica-desi... ("Italy uncovers basilica designed by Vitruvius, the 'father of architecture'")

    (edit: To be precise, it plagiarizes off of the London-based "Asharq Al-Awsat", whose English-language edition syndicates Reuters (legitimately). I'm inferring this because the thearchaeologist.org also clones al-Awsat's choice of hero image, and the idiosyncratic language in that image's caption. That image, in turn, originates (as attributed) in an Italian government press release[1]).
