It is important to understand this map as a simplification of the highly complex transport system of the Roman Empire. Beyond these roads, there were also lesser roads and even paths that were used to travel from one place to another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The illustration shows the different roads painted in different colours. Sasha clarifies on her website that not all names and routes are faithful to historical records. Some roads retain their historical name and route, some have been unified or divided, and some have been given a new name (as there are no names in Roman sources).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>They retain their names and historical routes: Via Appia, Via Augusta, Via Aurelia, Via Delapidata, Via Domitia, Via Egnatia, Via Flaminia, Via Flavia (I, II, III), Via Julia Augusta, Via Lusitanorum, Via Militaris, Via Popilia, Via Portumia, Via Salaria, Via Tiburtina, Via Traiana and Via Traiana Nova.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Modified roads: Via Latina I, Via Aquitania, Via Asturica Burdigalam, Via Claudia, Via Hadriana, Via Maris, Via Valeria, Via Aurelia, Via Sucinaria, Via Gemina and Via Claudia Augusta.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The rest are names of roads invented by the author.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Similar to underground maps, the map also includes a legend of <em>future seasons<\/em> for those roads that were created after the year 125, with dotted lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sources<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/sashamaps.net\/docs\/maps\/roman-roads-original\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Roman Roads<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This map, created by Sasha Trubetskoy in 2017, shows the main roads of the Roman Empire's road network... <\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1511,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"googlesitekit_rrm_CAow66TFDA:productID":"","iawp_total_views":664,"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"1"},"categories":[11,10],"tags":[383,28,224,310,660,131],"class_list":["post-1510","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mapas-curiosos","category-mapas-historicos","tag-383","tag-europa","tag-imperio-romano","tag-mapa-de-transportes","tag-sasha-trubetskoy","tag-siglo-ii"],"aioseo_notices":[],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/mastodon.cloud\/@mapasmilhaud\/110450478305342082","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mapasmilhaud.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1510","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mapasmilhaud.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mapasmilhaud.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mapasmilhaud.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mapasmilhaud.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1510"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mapasmilhaud.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1510\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mapasmilhaud.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1511"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mapasmilhaud.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1510"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mapasmilhaud.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1510"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mapasmilhaud.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1510"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
