PRAENESTINA, VIA

This article appears in Volume V22, Page 244 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: POL-PRE
PRAENESTINA, VIA , an
ancient
  road of
Italy
 , leading from Rome E. by S. to Praeneste, a distance of 23 m., Gabii being situated almost exactly half-way. At the ninth mile the road crosses a ravine by the well-preserved and lofty
Ponte
  di Nona, with seven
arches
 , the finest
ancient
 
bridge
  in the neighbourhood of Rome. The line of the road is, considering the - difficulty of the
country
  beyond Gabii, very straight. In the stretch beyond Gabii it is only used as a track, and well preserved. Half-way between Gabii and Praeneste is the well-preserved single-arched
bridge
 , known as
Ponte
  Amato.
See T.
Ashby
