Map of Paths and Royal Trazzere: Overview
Global map updated in real time of the Map of the Paths and the Royal Trazzere of Sicily, included in the project Ancient paths and historical itineraries of Sicily.
The mapping aims to provide a complete overview, also embracing the segments present in the Map of the Sicilian, Greek and Roman Paths and Traverses. Even if the latter are analyzed separately, the objective remains to integrate them into the whole, together with the archaeological sites.
The main objective of the project is the reconstruction of the ancient routes, without limiting themselves to their current accessibility. It is important to consider that numerous routes no longer exist or are impassable. Despite this, we believe that mapping could prove valuable for identifying future paths, especially for those portions that are still accessible.
It is possible to switch to viewing with better readability and at the same time more detailed information, accessing individual thematic or territorial areas. The following web pages are currently active:
- Map of the Paths and the Royal Trazzere of Sicily (paths and tracks only)
- Paths and Royal Trazzere of the South East (paths and tracks only – South East Area)
- Global Map of the South East also including the other ancient streets and archaeological sites - South East Area)
In the initial phase, priority will be given to routes that are close to what is believed to have been the ancient Greek and Roman routes.
The project Ancient Walks and Historical Itineraries of Sicily is carried out in collaboration with AIPTOC - Italian Association of Tourism Professionals and Cultural Operators and the Helios Study Center.
