Italy · Europe · 41.90°N, 12.49°E
Magnanapoli is a name given to part of the Quirinal Hill in Rome, literally meaning Great Naples. The two most common explanations are that this is a corruption of:Balnea Pauli, name given to the nearby Trajan's Market when it was thought to be a thermal-baths complex built by Pope Paul I Magnus Neapolitani Regni Connestabilis, a post held by members of the Colonna family, deriving from their many fiefs in the Kingdom of Naples. They held many towers in this area, and the corruption could have crept in from a shortened or damaged inscription.
