The roman centuriazione
 

In Veneto, and more just to east north of Padua, it can be found in an optimal state of conservation, an example of roman centuriazione. The roman gratin has origin in the Euganei necks and extends until the city of Asolo. As a result of several archaeological studies, the origin of the structure is the I century in coincidence with a great frequentation of Agro. The sites are distributed along decumanus maximus and to north of it, without a constant localization inside the centuries.
