A Roman forum was a combination marketplace and civic center. It was the gathering place of a Roman town where trials were held, civic announcements were posted and news was dispersed. There were shops and food bars either directly in the forum or in close proximity. The main forum or the Forum Romanum, was the heart of the city of Rome and eventually the center of the empire. It not only had the above mentioned aspects, but it was also the place where the hut of Romulus was supposed to have been, and the lacus curtius, the navel of Rome, from which all distances were measured.
