Latium adiectum

View of Fondi, ancient Fundi, at the foot of the Monti Aurunci in Latium adiectum. The flat country is reclaimed marshland, similar to but not part of the Agro Pontino. It is now called the South Pontino. The Via Appia went through this region on its way south to Campania, which is located beyond the mountains seen in the distance.

Latium adiectum (transl. attached Latium) or Latium Novum was a region of Roman Italy between Monte Circeo and the river Garigliano, south of and immediately adjacent to Old Latium, hence its name of attached Latium.
