Prince William Forest Park has flourished to what it is today but it carries historical events that not only made a serious impact on history today but also on the national park. As one of their historical events such as the Civil War, it established a huge impact on the park today and has continued to be a part of the parks history.

It is nearly impossible to look at the field that holds the remains of the Circus Maximus and understand what it once held without the aid of a vivid reconstruction. The remains of Circus Maximus lie in the Valley between the Aventine and Palentine hill.

In later years, this lead to the construction of a circus under the first Etruscan king, Tarquinius Priscus around 600 bc. Previous to Tarquin’s intervention, an underground stream kept the valley swamp like. Tarquin diverted the water and drained the area and began to hold chariot races in the area. The

The observatory looked like a forgotten castle, waiting for the next rulers to occupy it.
