摘要：Tabula Peutingeriana is considered one of the most important cartographic representations of romanitineraria and an important source for the history of late roman antiquity, especially concerning the roadnetworks implying the mobility pattern in the roman era. In this paper we visit the "peutingerian"Mediterranean islands of Balearic, Corsica and Sardinia, Sicily, Djerba, Crete and Cyprus, as depictedin Tabula Peutingeriana, in terms of modern digital image technologies, analyzing the relevance of theroad networks in association to each island' toponyms in comparison to modern cartographic counterparts (indicating thus coincidences and differences between "peutingerian" and "actual" road distances)and comparing the relative islands' sizes, concerning the surface and scale, concluding in the portrayaland evaluation of the Mediterrnaean islands road networks during late antiquity
