Looking to the right just outside Porta San Sebastiano you will notice a copy of the first milestone of the Via Appia Antica. It marked the distance of a Roman mile (equal to 1,480 meters) from Porta Capena, where once the Via Appia Antica began. The original was found in 1584 and was moved to the Capitol in 1910, where it is still preserved today.

Just outside Porta San Sebastiano is the first milestone column of the Via Appia. Today replaced by a faithful copy, as the original was moved to the Capitol in 1910.
