Marina De Franceschini 
Le ville romane della X Regio, Venetia et Histria
Catalogo e carta archeologica degli insediamenti rurali dalla fine della repubblica al tardo impero. Roma 1999 (pp. 973, 291 tavole, con 20 cartine)

The discovery and conquest of the Po Valley had for Rome the same importance that the discovery of America later had for Europe. It was the opening of a new horizon and the starting point of a fast economic growth, which was the solid foundation of the hegemony of Rome in the Venetia et Histria and in Europe. 

The book lists 576 sites of villas, their decoration, features and industrial plants, such as torcularia; it reconstructs the economic history of that part of Italy in Roman time
At the center of the Roman economic system - which was consistently exported in the Mediterranean world and in the northern Provinces - were the Villas, their products, the centuriation and the main cities; then came the road network, the navigable rivers, the fluvial and sea harbors, which enabled all sorts of commerce. 

The history of the Roman hegemony in Venetia et Histria started in the III century B.C., with the epic times of the first Roman colonies; then came the 'golden' augustan times with their economic boom, and finally the difficult years of the 'decline and fall' of the Roman Empire. 
This book uncovers new perspectives on the III-IV centuries, the villas and their economy in late antiquity.
