Velletri e i frammenti delle sue mura
The town of Velletri, whose origins date back to the early Iron Age, was provided with walls from at least the 4th century BC. Around the IX century the city was again fortified. The new walls were repaired several times until the middle of the XIX century. The events related to its disappearance are similar to those of other Italian and European towns, for which the literature, which over time has dealt with urban phenomena, has identified the cause of the systematic disposal of urban fortifications in the need for modernity.
