Excerpt from Milano, Vol. 1
Nel periodo romano la città ebbe un'epoca di sviluppo edilizio e di prosperità, specialmente quando marc'aurelio Valerio Massimiano Er cu1eo vi pose la sede della corteimperiale. Ma sulla cinta di mura ch'egli, secondo Aurelio Vittore, v'avrebbe innalzata molto favoleggia rono i vecchi storici del luogo, e la critica moderna non è disposta ad accettare ad occhi chiusile asserzioni dì Acerbo Morena podestà di Lodi ehe lodava di Milano la. Forte cinta provvista di cento torri e tanto meno quelle del Fiamma e di Landolfo seniore che parlano adirittura di trecento torri. Gli scavi per la co struzione del palazzo della Cassa di Risparmio misero in luce buon tratto di quella cinta grosse pietre quadrate e durissimi mattoni, ri vestita di poderosi massi spianati e diligente mente disposti: struttura che richiamò alla me moria qualche altro avanzo rintracciato, nel sottosuolo, altrove.
