VIA COLLATINA

a road which led to Collatia, I miles from Rome, diverging from the VIA TIBURTINA just outside the PORTA TIBURTINA of the Aurelian wall. It was a road of purely local importance; and it is mentioned only in connection with the springs of the AQUA APPIA and the AQUA VIRGO (Frontinus, de aquis, i. 5, io). From Collatia a road ran to the via Praenestina (T. vi. 139-151; x. 460-492; PBS i. 138-149; RE iii. 365).
