DO YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT THE PEUTINGER TABLE IS?

Pars X of the Peutinger Table represents the Far Eastern region of the Roman Empire, centered on Constantinople, the new imperial capital founded by Constantine the Great. In this section, the city dominates the scene as a crossroads between Europe and Asia, symbolizing the shift of the Empire's political and cultural pole towards the East. The roads traced on the map connect Constantinople to the Balkan provinces, Asia Minor, and, via maritime routes, to the rest of the Mediterranean, highlighting the city's strategic role on the shores of the Bosphorus.

Alongside Constantinopolis, important centers such as Nicomedia, Nicaea, Adrianople, and other cities in Asia Minor and Thrace emerge, reflecting the complex administrative and military network that guaranteed the Eastern Empire's security and trade. Bodies of water, such as the Sea of Marmara and the Bosphorus, are depicted with sinuous blue stripes, while the islands are stylized with simple geometric shapes.

Pars X is an exceptional document that testifies to the transition from Imperial Rome to the new Rome of the East. It is the symbol of an empire that continued to live and prosper thanks to its communication routes and its great urban centers. This section of the Tabula Peutingeriana allows us to perceive the power, wealth, and centrality of Constantinople, destined to become the beating heart of the Eastern Mediterranean for centuries.
