VIA FLAMINIA

VIA FLAMINIA
* (Not. app.; Eins. 4. 10): constructed in 220 B.C. during
the censorship of C. Flaminius (Liv. Epit. xx.; Strabo v. 217 wrongly
ascribes it to C. Flaminius the younger) from Rome to Ariminum. Its
importance led to its having a special curator as early as 65 B.C. (Cic.
ad Att. i. I. 2), and it was restored by Augustus himself in 27 B.C. (Mon.
Anc. iv. 19; Suet. Aug. 30; Cass. Dio liii. 22; Cohen, Aug. 229-235,
541-544=BM. Aug. 79-81, 432-436). It was a much frequented road
(Strabo v. 227; Tac. Hist. i. 86; ii. 64), and the four silver cups of about
the time of Trajan, found at Vicarello, on which is the itinerary by land
from Rome to Gades, prove this (CIL xi. 3281-3284). Cf. Hist. Aug.
Maximin. 25. 2.
The road gave its name to one of the districts of Italy as early as the
second century A.D. We have epigraphic testimony of the importance
of the traffic on it (praef. vehiculorum a copis Aug. per viam Flaminiam
CIL x. 7585; praepositus [cursualis] de via Flabinia (sic)
