Giulio Magli has published a book, Secrets of the Ancient Megalithic Towns. In his study, he studied 38 Italian towns that date back to Roman times. He studied the orientations of their streets and has come to the conclusion that Romans used Astronomy when laying out their towns. By determining this fact, then it will enable scientists and archaelogists to learn more about what the Romans knew about astrology.
