Region XI
According to Sant'Angelo (rione of Rome), region XI lay outside the walls. Which article is correct?


 * Hallo, both are correct. You should not mix up regiones with rioni. This article is right, because it says that regio XI (Circus maximus, the valley between Palatine and Aventine hills) lies outside the walls.
 * The article about Sant'Angelo says that rione XI (Sant'Angelo) in the imperial age was part of regio IX (Circus Flaminius) which, being a part of the Campus Martius plain, lies outside the walls. Rione XI, not regio XI lied outside the walls.
 * In general, the progressive number of a rione has nothing to do with the progressive number of the augustan regio where the territory of the rione lies.

Incorrect image
Hi--the image on this page (map of Rome showing Servian Wall and gates) is NOT of the Servian wall--the Transtiber area is walled in, which was a later development. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.167.95.228 (talk) 02:17, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Map background color question
What is the significance of the pink vs. white background color on the map? -- Beland (talk) 00:26, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

 * Ah, thanks; that makes several maps make a lot more sense! -- Beland (talk) 18:33, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
