I am not sure if this was ever posted in the old Fanaticus but I am finding it useful for my upcoming project.

The site has overlaid the Peutinger Map of the Roman Empire to be overlaid on a modern geographical map spanning the breadth of the empire. Resting the cursor at each junction will reveal the Roman name of the city.

I'm always impressed, every time I realise again how huge was the roman empire, especially for that time (administration, logistics, tec)
