The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- According to historian Pierre Sillières, who has supervised excavation of Roman sites in Spain to identify the exact route followed by the Via Augusta, it was more a system of roads than a single road.
- Approximately 1,500 km long, the Via Augusta was built to link Spain with Italy, running from the southwestern coastal city of Gades to the Pyrenees Mountains along inland valleys parallel to the coast of the Mediterranean Sea.
- As the main axis of the road network in Roman Hispania, it appears in ancient sources such as the itinerary inscribed on the Vicarello Cups as well in as the Antonine Itinerary.
