## Image Caption

The Via Flaminia was constructed for military purposes by Gaius Flaminius in 220 BCE. It went through the ancient town of Carsulae (Umbria, [Italy](https://www.worldhistory.org/italy/)) and became its main road (cardo maximus) of which 400 metres are still visible. The so-called San Damiano Arch which spans the Via Flaminia at the northern entrance of Carsulae was built during the reign of [Augustus](https://www.worldhistory.org/augustus/). It was originally an arch with three fornices (the two lateral minor ones have collapsed).
