Quote:Well, be happy that you don't live in Nijmegen opposite the Porta Romanum.It's worse than that Jim, ehh Jona.
Despite my best effort, Houten will be 'blessed' by a second town centre (Castellum) with streetnames such as:
Porta Basilica
Porta Tegula
Porta Toga
Cella Asia
Cella Syria
Cella Gallia
Fossa Italica
Fossa Iberica
Fossa Hispanica
Via Tunica (argh...)
Via Horta (double argh...)
Via Arena (triple.. well, you know)
Piazza (which will soon become 'Pizza', I want to bet)...
I managed to squeeze in a Forum and a Cardo, but the damage was done years before, by a Latinist from Utrecht no less. :x
