Pantheon from Pan
theion meaning "Temple for all gods"
The building was completed about 126 AD
Giordano Bruno 1548 – 1600, was an
Italian monk.
He proposed that the stars were
just distant suns
surrounded by their own planets and
raised the idea
that these planets could even foster
life of their own.
Bruno was tried for heresy by
the Roman Inquisition
who found him guilty, and he was burned
at the stake
here at Campo de' Fiori in
1600.
