È un'imponente testimonianza della romanizzazione della Valle d'Aosta. Incerta la sua datazione: per alcuni sarebbe stato costruito verso il 120 a.C., per altri nel 25 a.C. L'edificazione del ponte oggi esistente potrebbe ricadere nel periodo di Augusto, che dopo l'annessione della città di Aosta nel 25 a.C. e la sua rifondazione come colonia romana di Augusta Praetoria fece rinnovare da cima a fondo il sistema stradale locale. Le fondamenta di pietre lavorate, che si distinguono chiaramente sul rivestimento soprastante di pietre di cava, hanno dato adito all'ipotesi che una precedente costruzione con una campata di grandezza simile potrebbe essere stata edificata già nel 141 o 120 a.C. durante la costruzione della prima strada militare nella valle, ma a causa della tecnica cementizia non ancora matura non aveva avuto lunga durata. La leggenda La fantasia popolare ha attribuito la costruzione del ponte al diavolo. La leggenda narra che San Martino, vescovo di Tours, dovendo ritornare dall'Italia nella sua diocesi, si trovò bloccato dal torrente Lys, che con la sua piena aveva travolto l'unica passerella. Il diavolo gli propose di risolvere il problema costruendo, in una sola notte, un solido ponte, ma pretese in cambio l'anima del primo che avrebbe attraversato il ponte. Il santo accettò, ma la mattina dopo, lanciando un pezzo di pane all'altra estremità del ponte, fece sì che il primo ad attraversarlo fosse un cagnolino affamato. Il diavolo, furente, scomparve nel Lys tra lampi e zaffate di zolfo, ed alla popolazione rimase il ponte. La leggenda costituisce tuttora uno dei temi fondamentali del carnevale di Pont-Saint-Martin, che si conclude proprio con il rogo del diavolo sotto il ponte romano. Critiche e commenti sempre super graditi. GRAZIE.

Nobody is born learned Annamaria, and try to be helpful and supportive if possible, indicating the elements of attention and maybe suggest some possible solution, always without obligation.
Look at this, but maybe as you will have noticed, too, in your previous file "towards Villa Carlotta", I put "like" but then I could not comment on it 'cause scrolling downwards' comments, " there was no space to comment ", as if it lacked the white dialog window (perhaps' stepped in some display anomaly or in the comment / response?
Hello, Claudio :-P :-)

Claudio, criticisms and suggestions are always very useful and especially instructive, and that's what I'm always looking.
As for the photos of Lake Como if you scroll all the way down the page, you can find more comments. It 'annoying anomaly that is not the first time reply.
Best wishes and thanks again

I am also convinced that a black and white has a higher gear. Claudio, sooner or later he'll print some. And these Romans, dear Julius, how much we have left !!!
Thank you, guys, always kind and generous with excellent comments.

Very original, good. A curiosity: in the shooting data something does not ... you used a ef-m on a 30d? Also you have a f 2.7 when the lens is 3.5-5.6 ...
