You're standing on the Via Latina, one of the oldest roads of ancient Rome. Look back towards the city for a moment. That's where it started, at the Porta Latina, a gate in the Aurelian Walls. From there it ran about two hundred kilometres southeast, all the way to Casilinum near Capua, where it joined the famous Via Appia.
