spina
Spina,
the long-sought Etrusco-Greek city in the Po Valley. The grid
of canals and city blocks was neatly sketched in lighter and
darker shades of marsh grass. Note the wide black strip top
left, which represents the principal port canal. Superimposed
white parallels belong to modern drainage system.
