Шаблон:Infobox Italian comune Ceggia is a town in the Metropolitan City of Venice, in Veneto, northern Italy, known for its carnival. It is crossed by the SP58 provincial road and SS14 state road.

History

The origins

The name "Ceggia" derives from the Latin Cilia maris or Cilium maris , which in each case means "sea shore". In ancient times Ceggia was therefore a village on the shores of the Adriatic. The nucleus of the town was formed slightly later than the hamlet of Gainiga, where finds of Roman origin were found which testify to life in these lands (in fact the Via Annia passed here, built by Tito Annio Lusco in 153 BC, which still follows via Colonne and via Anarè). Many Roman objects have been found in the town of Gainiga (coins, amphorae, refreshment points) which make one think of how this peripheral area compared to the center of the town was very popular in the past. Also in Ceggia were found the Roman bridge, still exposed in its original place, a funerary stele, found by chance by a farmer in via Noghera while he was tilling the land in the 1980s, various Roman coins, some amphorae, exposed at the crossroads of SS14, and a marble stone of Roman origin, found during the construction of the (now abandoned) military base.

Medieval period

With the end of the Roman period, in Ceggia we witness the progressive deterioration of the works built by the Romans, as in all the surrounding areas. With the barbarian and Lombard invasions, we witnessed the slow sinking of the lands and the advance of the sea waters. It was the Lombards who gave the name "Gainiga" to the center near Ceggia: in fact, in 998, in an imperial decree, the toponym Gaieniga is found, coming from the word Gahagi, meaning "wood, hedge". Even the toponym "Rivazancana" is from this period: in 1024, in the Cittanova pact, we find Rivo cancani, originating from the German term zanka (earthenware).

Renaissance

In 1317 Ceggia appears to be present in the inventory of the properties of the Da Camino family of Oderzo, while in 1389 it became part of the Serenissima Republic of Venice . In these times a first chapel was built in San Vitale. Many noble Venetian families also arrived in this period, such as the Loredans and the Zenos, who had a villa designed by Andrea Palladio built. But in 1797 Napoleon's conquests brought down the Republic of Venice, so Ceggia and the rest of the Veneto found themselves part of the Austrian government.
