Fulginiae

Fulginiae or Fulginium (modern Foligno) was an ancient town of Umbria, Italy, on the later line of the Via Flaminia, c. 20 km S of Nuceria (Nocera Umbra). It appears to have been of comparatively late origin, inasmuch as it had no city walls, but, in imperial times especially, owing to its position on the new line of the Via Flaminia, it must have increased in importance as being the point of departure of roads to Perusia and to Picenum over the pass of Plestia. It appears to have had an amphitheatre, and three bridges over the Topino river are attributed to the Roman period.
