 Glossary
The via praetoria was so named because in the legionary marching camp it led from the tent of the legionary commander (the praetorium, as he was usually a former praetor) to the front gateway and the direction of the enemy.
The via praetoria ran at right-angles from the groma marking the central point of the via principalis to the main gates of the fort, directly opposite the entrance to the principia.
The via principalis generally continued through the defenses where gateways were maintained, the porta principalis sinistra and porta principalis dextra, to left and right of the principia.
