Via Severiana
Via Severiana was an ancient Roman road in central Italy leading in Latium (modern Lazio), running southeast from Portus to Tarracina (passing trought the Isola Sacra), a distance of 80 Roman miles (c. ) along the coast. A restoration and reunion of existing roads was carried out with a work of lastrification in 198–209AD, during the reign of emperor Septimius Severus (from which the road would have taken its name), in order to connect more quickly the maritime towns of Ostia, Lavinium, Ardea, Antium and the routes that came there from Rome. Thomas Ashby said that it would have run along the shore only at first: just behind the line of villas which fronted the sea – which are now some inland – or even upon its edge (for an inscription records its being damaged by the waves); farther southeast the road would seem to have kept rather more distant from the shore, and it probably kept within the lagoons below the Circean promontory. Although the remains of the via Severia ...
