	The Via Appia And The Cities Of The Pontine Plain
		The Via Appia intersects the happy hunting grounds of the Latin people, as it takes its way in wavy straightness from Rome toward Alba and then after leaving the first spurs of the Volscian hills on its left shoots straight as a bullet across the Pontine plain to the southern boundary of Latium at Terracina.
		The Appia then spans the gap between the Alban hills and the Volscian range of the Monti Lepini, a picturesque spur of the Apennines running parallel to the main range along the edge of the Pontine plain until it reaches the coast and the mountains at Terracina.
		But as we stand once more on the Via Appia at this point, we must not forget that on our left, some five miles back, we have left high up on the mountain side the ancient Latin city of Cora with its well preserved triple circuit of polygonal walls and its very early bold bridge.

	Via Appia - LoveToKnow 1911 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		VIA APPIA, a high-road leading from Rome to Campania and lower Italy, constructed in 312 B.C. by the censor Appius Claudius Caecus.
		Under Diocletian and Maximian a road (the Via Herculia) was constructed from Aequum Tuticum to Pons Aufidi near Venusia, where it crossed the Via Appia and went on into Lucania, passing through Potentia and Grumentum, and joining the Via Popilia near Nerulum.
		Though it must have lost much of its importance through the construction of the Via Traiana, the last portion from Tarentum to Brundusium was restored by Constantine about A.D. The Via Appia was the most famous of Roman roads; Statius, Silvae, ii.

		The Via Appia was often referred to in ancient Roman times as "longarum regina viarum" -- "queen of highways" -- because it was the first and in many ways the most important of Roman roads.
		The Via Appia, and especially the stretch just south of Rome, with its long stretch of tombs and monuments, was the haunt of footpads and highwaymen and, so the Romans thought, of Lemurs.
		The Via di Porta San Sebastiano is one of the nicest and most picturesque roads inside of the Aurelian walls because the area has escaped modern, that is, post-Renaissance, redevelopment.

		Having been there many times before, I once again marvelled at the Roman Empire, which lasted almost 1000 years and at its peak encompassed Egypt, Turkey, the Middle East, Greece, the countries up to the Danube River, France, and part of Germany, England, Spain, and their Celtic inhabitants, Portugal and the northern rim of Africa.
		Part of the secret is in the Via Appia, an example of the Roman network of roads that spanned from one end of the empire to the other, including those built earlier by Persians, Babylonians and other civilizations.

	Milestones - Via Appia
		Perhaps the most famous Roman road is the Via Appia built by Appius Claudius Caecus in 312 B.C. The road ran from Rome to Capua (a distance of 132 miles) and later extended by Trajan in 114 A.D. to Brindisi (an additional 234 miles).
		It was during this era that the Romans placed milestones along the Via Appia.
		The modern traveler along the Via Appia will note that just a few of the ornate seven foot half ton milestones remain, having weathered almost two thousand years of service.

		The road was wide enough to allow vehicles travelling in opposite directions to pass; the surface, paved with basalt and bordered with sidewalks of pounded earth, was about 13 feet wide (the statutory width for main routes at the time when the road was built).
		The "Via Appia Antica" was the first Roman road to be named after the magistrate who built it.
		Consequently Appius Claudius Caecus, who also provided the Romans with their first aqueduct, is one of the city's earliest known public figures.
