a way reaching from Rome through Capua to Brundufium, between 330 and 350 miles long. Appius Claudius, surnamed Cælius, in the year of the city 441, carried it from the Porta Capena to Capua (Livy, Frontinus). It was afterwards carried on to Brundufium; but by whom, or when, is uncertain. It was laid with very hard stone, brought from a great distance, large and squared (Diodorus); and it was so wide, that several waggons could go abreast. Statius calls it the queen of roads. Its course is described by Horace, Strabo, and Antonine.
