Milestones provided more than practical information to travellers in the Roman world, even though their main function was to present information on distances. They represent a very characteristic element of a humanized landscape, in which their presence and displayed epigraphs contributed to the spread of cultural values proper to Roman civilization. Thus, milestones constitute not only crucial elements for reconstructing the layout of the road network but also help to trace the history of Roman roads, something which is not always easy to accomplish
