The paper reconstructs the topography of Constantinople’s fourteenth region (regio XIV) applying the urban morphology
analysis methods (Caniggia and Maffei, 1979) and the attractors’ theory (Camiz, 2018) to the fragmentary documental
sources and scarce archaeological data. The pontem sublicium sive ligneum’s location was determined as part of a street
network, in analogy with the pons sublicius in Rome, according to the formation process of the territorial organism. This
was the starting point for the reconstruction of the topographic mosaic. By redefining the path of the Constantinian walls
upon quantitative sources it was possible to localise the monumental buildings of the XIV region, as listed in the Notitia
Urbis Constantinopolitanae, with reference to the morphology of the territory described by Dionysius of Byzantium and
the Patria Konstantinopoleos. The form of the territory is a permanent element within urban contexts of continuous
changes, demolitions and reconstructions. The analysis of the urban tissues, the road network’s diachronic attraction
and the reconstruction of the territorial organism provided the general methodological framework for the placement of
the topographical urban fragments mentioned by historical sources upon a GIS.
