Stage 06 (Cesiomaggiore - Feltre)
Overview
Origins and the Roman Age
According to Pliny the Elder (Naturalis Historia, III, 130), ancient Feltria was founded by the Reti (oppidum Rhaetian) with the cities of Trent and Verona. The place name is debated: some liken it to the Etruscan language (Felthuri, i.e. city of Fel), observing an assonance with Velhatre (Velletri).
Gradually Romanised, Feltria became municipium optimo jure and in the imperial age experienced considerable economic and urban development. Its proximity to the important Via Claudia Augusta, a road that led from Altino, on the Venetian Lagoon, via Trento and the Brenner Pass to Augusta Vindelicum (today’s Augsburg, in Bavaria), was fundamental.
