An architect and a classical archaeologist have come together to give a new perspective on one of Rome's ancient roads, via Tiburtina. The result is a book just published, Via Tiburtina - Space, Movement and Artefacts in the Urban Landscape, which examines the constantly changing urban space of the road. The project involved six years of studying almost every inch of the ancient road and takes an interdisciplinary look at the road through the ages and from various angles, including its history during antiquity, the Renaissance and up to its continued use today.
