Well, all of these stories fit in this place. Except the volcano.
Focus on the name of the place.

Okay. I looked at what I wrote, "Romeo" jumped out at me... then I wondered if Julius Ceasar ('cause Rome) was poisoned, but when I googled Julius Ceasar I saw that no, he was stabbed (I was so in my own world during history class), but he was stabbed near the theater of Pompey (volcano). The scenes I saw seem to fit the feeling that he was an unfair ruler, causing unrest through his decisions (though that can be reaching it a little thin). Wine and poison seem to fit with the area and time frame that I was feeling, even if Ceasar himself wasn't poisoned. I'm somehow under the impression that poison was very prevalent there.
Eta - Right. Felt insecure about all that and googled "denarius" (why not, I already looked up Julius and his page reminded me that they made coins called that) and first felt that I was wrong because none of them looked like that. Then I scrolled further down. No way. I got to be wrong, I don't do distance readings.
Eta (again) - IF that is right (still not fully secure on it), or I guess even if it isn't what are you saying with the spilled cups there though? I mean, everywhere has spilled cups and loss and death, or were you thinking of something specific that would be a clue to the location with cups?

You've got the name right and I think you are seccond guessing with lots of unnecessary stuff.

hmmm....would it be unfair to guess, based on Dryad in the elm's guess? I have a different name, though.

Woah. Seriously? Is it in a tomb? Just thinking about that burial mound.
Go ahead and guess, Padma. The name you have might lead you to a specific place in Rome. I'm happy with what I got, never thought I could do this kind of reading. Also, she said I got the name right, not the place. There's more than one Rome in the world. Also may be the name of a building.
Padma
Thanks, Dryad! I didn't want to usurp you!
I think this is about Anthony and Cleopatra - and Aegyptus used to be a Roman province! So, hidden in Egypt?

Ha! I found the coin - it does feature the head of Brutus, and it was minted in a travelling mint that went through Greece and Asia.
So - in Greece?
"Conversely, a silver denarius issued by Brutus in 43 or 42 BC (Figure 1.2), from a travelling mint which moved with his encampment through Greece and Asia, displays a humbly bare-headed portrait of Brutus the general. With him is conjoined, on the reverse, a cap of liberty (or the pilleus customarily granted to slaves on the death of their master). The cap is inserted between two daggers below which sits the clear legend EID[ES] MAR[TIAE]—an archaic spelling of the Ides of March, the day in 44 BC on which the minter, along with some of his fellow senators, killed Julius Caesar."
