Answer(s):

Thank you for using Ask-A- Question. This service is available to the people of the Alberta (Canada)but as a courtesy we often answer many questions from very many places. If you want to know more about the 7 hills of Rome than I have given, you only need to "Google" your question and you will receive many sites that can answer your question.

The basic answer is: Traditionally Rome is said to be founded on 7 hills. In reality, these are not actually distinct hills but more like ridges. The names of the seven hills are as follows: Palatine Hill; Capitoline Hill; Quirinal Hill; Viminal Hill; Esquiline Hill; Caelian Hill; Aventine Hill; Pincian Hill; Janiculum and Vatican Hill.

Thanks again and good luck in future searches.
