Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Via Cornelia is an ancient Roman Road that supposedly ran east west along the northern wall of the Circus of Nero on land now covered by the southern wall of St. Peter's Basilica. It is closely associated with the Via Aurelia and the Via Triumphalis. There is some belief amongst archeologists that the Via Cornelia did not exist and that the name is a mutilation of the Via Aurelia. This conjecture stems from the fact that the Via Cornelia is only mentioned in the itineraries and witnesses of the 7th and 8th centuries; for in those centuries the population of Rome decreased from about one and a half million to sixty thousand and the people were impoverished and could hardly speak Latin well. The citizens would also have no idea of the topography of the Imperial period. Where-as documents from the 4th century state Saint Peter was buried along the Via Triumphalis.
