Cordonata
The cordonata is a sloping road interrupted at regular distances by low steps in the form of transversal stripes made of stone or bricks. It has a form almost similar to a flight of steps, but allows the transit of horses and donkeys.
Famous Italian cordonate are in Rome, one leading from Piazza d'Aracoeli to Piazza del Campidoglio and another leading to the Piazza del Quirinale, giving the name to a road.
