Map about the name of Italy

[edit]

Hi, I'm writing to you about the map that showed the progressive enlargement of the territory called Italia, which you removed from many articles because it was considered wrong. Following this edit, I found this other map: is this one correct? Hi, LukeWiller (talk) 12:27, 9 August 2024 (UTC).[reply]

User:LukeWiller, unfortunately it's also wrong, I don't know why it starts with the territory between Sele and Lao when the first area should be in Calabria. And, since it's a map on the "territory named Italy", by c. 222 BC it should already show all of Italy up to the Alps, excluding the islands. It confuses Caesar giving Roman citizenship to Cisalpine Gaul with that part being considered geographically part of Italy, that is obviously not the case since a man who lived in the III-II century BC (Polybius) wrote that Hannibal crossed the Alps into Italy (which happened in 218 BC) and he explains very well the geography of Italy, saying it starts at the Alps. The same it's done by Cato, another man who lived already in the III-II century BC There seem to be a common original mistaken map from which these maps come from, it could be this one.

An idea came to me: you could contact it:Progetto:Laboratorio grafico/Immagini da migliorare to have the map File:RomanItaly.png corrected, so we have at least one corrected one that can visually see the expansion of the territory called Italy. What do you think? LukeWiller (talk) 14:48, 11 August 2024 (UTC).[reply]
User:LukeWiller, I will do it, or I even correct the map myself if I am able to. Barjimoa (talk) 15:20, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, but do you have time to do it soon? A lot of time has passed since you removed the map from the articles. LukeWiller (talk) 15:28, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The request to the lab I can do it today, the attempt at changing it myself I don't know, I have to see if I can do it. Barjimoa (talk) 15:32, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I did it and discussione emrged out it, let's see where this goes. Barjimoa (talk) 15:59, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
