Excerpt from Papers of the British School at Rome, Vol. 4 The Via Latina, too, follows a line which is far more natural than that of the Via Appia. Bunbury remarks, with perfect truth, that the Via Latina 'was one Of the principal of the numerous highroads that issued from the gates of Rome, and probably one of the most ancient or them. Hence we have no account Of the time of its construction, and it was probably in use as a means of communication long before it was paved and converted into a regular highroad.
