On the occasion of today's walk from Allerona Ficulle you will pass some along the route of TRAIANA NOVA (*), which is available at Palace Soliano (see Greek Museum) consists of a precious witness a milestone of which I am attaching a picture.
Note the size (my presence near the landmark wants to be a useful reference: I am tall m 1.92) and the entries that end with ... Novamar Traianam Volsinis ad fines Clusinorum fecit ab ... The milestone
XVII was found in 1924 at the farm Polvento (area next to the City of Ficulle Fabro Scalo), while a further milestone is very similar to this was discovered in 1961 along the Rivarcale in loc. Monte Regulus and is now in the Archaeological Museum of Florence. Greetings

(*) the nova Traiana was built in 107 AD to shorten the route from Bolsena, Chiusi without going to Orvieto (Cassia old). The figures on these milestones indicate the exact distance in miles from Bolsena.
