✔ One of the oldest bridges in Italy (national historical monument together with the Fabbrico bridge of the Tiber island of 69 BC), is located in Calabria along the route to the sea of the Savuto river.
On the slopes of Sila, in the territory of Scigliano we find, in fact, the Roman bridge also known as "Annibale" built in the second century BC. C. The bridge, 3.45 meters wide, 11 meters high and about 25 meters long, was part of the Via Popilia, an ancient Roman road which was built starting from Reggio Calabria to reach Rome after joining the Via Appia.
The Romans, by virtue of the importance of the work, built it in order to challenge time and weather, including the floods of the Savuto by building the dry bridge, one-time, with two concentric arches in red limestone tuff (taken from a quarry on the wall of a hill very close to the bridge) which over time has sutured with limestone dissolved by the same stones, so as to form a single block. The decking was built in masonry with river stones and pozzolan stone.
The ancient popular tradition gave this bridge the name of "Annibale", a completely incorrect denomination from the historical point of view as the Carthaginian leader, at the time of the construction of the building, attributable between 132 and 121 BC, was already transited from the land of Calabria almost a century earlier.
