  • The Vicus Patricius was a street of ancient Rome that crossed both the Cispian and Viminal hills and led, either directly or indirectly, to the Porta Viminalis. The Vicus Patricius bounded both Regio IV and Regio VI of the ancient city. Its course is thought to have been similar to that of the modern Via Urbana.
