| | | Vatican City VATICAN CITY - EUROPA 2022 Date of issue: 16 May 2022 | The Pope entrusted architect Domenico Fontana with the task of removing the obelisk from its original location and placing it in St. Peter’s Square and then raising it on a pedestal. It took 900 men and 140 horses to complete the work. In order to further facilitate the erection of the 327-ton monolith, the Pope issued an edict forbidding anyone to speak or enter the construction area. Violators would be punished with death. Everything went well until, on 10 September 1586, right at the end of the operation, a Ligurian sailor, Bresca da San Remo, realised that the ropes holding up the obelisk were about to break due to excessive tension and shouted, heedless of the papal warning: "Water to the ropes". He knew that hemp becomes shorter and more elastic when wet. The architect immediately took up the suggestion and successfully completed the work. The sailor was pardoned by the Pope, who not only honoured him with the title of captain of the first pontifical line regiment, but also granted his family the privilege of supplying the Vatican with the branches used for Palm Sunday. | | Contact | | Ufficio Filatelico e Numismatico - Governatorato | | 00120 Città del Vaticano | Vatican City | | T: | +39 06 698 83165 | F: | +39 06 698 83799 | E: | order.ufn@scv.va... |

| | | Vatican City VATICAN CITY - EUROPA 2020 Date of issue: 01 Jan 1900 | The 1,10 euro stamp reproduces the illustration of the Colonia Iulia (Torino), with the intersection of its main roads, the Cardo Massimo (north-south direction) with the Decumano Massimo (east-west direction), which extended outside the walls and joined the city to the four cardinal points. The illustration is part of the Corpus Agrimensorum Romanorum (6th Century), contained in the Pal. lat. 1564, the manuscript of the 9th Century of the Vatican Library, which served as a model for the Tabula peutingeriana, road map of the 11th Century, which indicated in red the cursus publicus, the ancient postal system of the Romans. To emphasize the importance of postal routes on the stamp, they are indicated in gold. | | Contact | | Ufficio Filatelico e Numismatico - Governatorato | | 00120 Città del Vaticano | Vatican City | | T: | +39 06 698 83165 | F: | +39 06 698 83799 | E: | order.ufn@scv.va... |
