Conselice is a Northern Italian town of about 10,000 people locate in the Po River Valley and part of the Ravenna province. Originally it was a Roman harbor (lat. Caput Silicis, literally "At the end of Via Silicis") important for the trade with Spina, an ancient etruscan city, and located at the end of Via Selice, a Roman paved road intersecting the Via Emilia. The first written document mentioning the city as the portus de capite selcis dates back to 1084 CE .
