Via Julia Augusta
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Via Julia Augusta is the name given to the Roman road formed by the merging of the Via Aemilia Scauri with the Via Postumia, running from Placentia (modern Piacenza) to Arelates (modern Arles) through Derthona (Tortona), Vada Sabatia (Vado Ligure), Albingaunum (Albenga) and Album Intimilium (Ventimiglia).
It was begun in 13 BC by Augustus, and originally stopped at La Turbie with a triumphal arch; later it was prolonged to Arles where it joined the Via Domitia.
