the artificially enhanced italian pony continues below from where it last
trotted off in message 13994

come a richiamare le prime versioni della delimitazione del confine in
prossimita del colonnato
oggi tra le colonne
leggermente arretrati
vi sono dei piccoli plutei con una cancellata che in alcuni punti diventa
cancelletto

as if to recall & recap the earliest versions of the border delimitation in
the colonnade area
there are today between the columns of the colonnade arms some lightweight
barricades
which can easily be completely removed
or just pulled back to form small openings or gateways at certain points


new heading
zona del passetto di borgo

itva in the passetto area

come gia accennato le planimetrie pubblicate sulla gazzetta ufficiale e
sugli acta apostolica sedis differivano per il triangulo mistilineo subito a
ridosso del tratto iniziale del passetto

as previously mentioned
the maps published in
the official gazette of italy & the official acts of the apostolic throne
differed in regard to the irregular triangular shape directly behind the
beginning of the passetto

in un appunto del ministero degli affari esteri
si confermava la svista del desegnatore che potrebbe ricondursi al fatto che
non solo si dovette ridisegnare in una notte la tavola 10 dell allegato ii
ma anche la pianta generale del nuovo stato

in a note from the ministry of foreign affairs
the cartographic error was confirmed
which could further corroborate the fact that not just table 10 of annex ii
but the whole map of the new state had to be redrawn in a single night

but note
this puzzling reference appears to be the only mention of table 10 anywhere
in the monograph

nella zona tra il passetto ed il colonnato berniniano
si creo
cosi
la stranezza della striscia di territorio italiano che si incunea fin presso
il portone di bronzo
fig11

in the area between the passetto & the bernini colonnade
there was thus created the oddity of a narrow strip of italian territory
wedged nearly all the way up to the bronze portal

durante i lavori della commissione il confine venne rettificato
prolungandolo dall odierna porta angelica direttamente al colonnato
fig12a & fig12b

during the course of the works of the commission
the border came to be corrected by the extension of todays porta angelica
directly to the colonnade

http://www.globalgeografia.com/europa/vaticano/fig12b.jpg

in un promemoria per il primo delegato italiano oreglia
il ministero degli affari esteri era contrario a cedere la striscia di
territorio adeguandosi alla lettera all articulo 3 del trattato

according to a note from italian head commissioner oreglia
the italian ministry of foreign affairs
adhering to the letter of article 3 of the treaty
was opposed to ceding the territorial strip

in una relazione del Corpo Reale del Genio Civile
probabilmente del novembre 1933 e comunque posteriore all agosto 1932
si conferma la svista del disegnatore e per quanto riguarda la striscia di
travertino dal passetto al colonnato che segna il confine
si affermava che venne decisa dalla commissione

in a report by the royal corps of civil engineers
probably made in november 1933 & in any case subsequent to august 1932
the cartographic error was confirmed
& in consideration of this
the strip of travertine that now marks the border from the passetto to the
colonnade was declared to have been decided & fixed by the commission

sulla nuova carta della citta del vaticano firmata in commissione tale
lingua di territorio risulta di proprieta della santa sede ed aperta al
pubblico
come piazza san pietro

on the new map of the vatican city signed by the commissioners
this resulting tongue of territory is depicted as belonging to the holy see
& as being open to the public
just like st peters square


so mats
i believe your faith in this detail is fully warranted as well
&
that it is actually a de jure replacement & correction for the former
inadvertent de jure itva
rather than some de facto accommodation


let me know if you want anything else translated


otherwise this completes my own vatican credo & survey of de jurcto itva
