718 EIGOMAGUS. been Rihhle-cliester or Rixton ; otliers identify it with Richnond. [T. H. D.] EIGOMAGUS, a village of Cisalpine Gaul, form- ing a station on the road from Ticinum {Pavia) to Augusta Taurinorum (Turin.') It is })laced by the Itineraries 36 M. P. from Laumellum (Lomello), and 36 M. P. from Augusta or Taurini : these distances coincide with the site of Trim Vecchio, a village a little to the S. of the modern town of Trino, on the left bank of the Ro {Itin. Ant. p. 339; Cluver. Ital. p. 234; Walckenaer, Geogr. des Gatdes, vol. iii. p. 23). [E. H. B.] EIGOMAGUS {Remagen), on the Rhine. The Table places it between Bonna (Bomi) and An- tunnacum (Andernach), viii. from Bonna and _ix. from Antunnacum. The Antonine Itin.,_ which omits Eigomagus, makes the distance xvii. from Bonna toAntunnacum. Remagen is on the Ehirie and on the north side of the Ahr near its junction with the Rhine. Ukert (Gallkn, p. .518, note) speaks of a milestone found at Remagen with the inscription " a Col. Agripp. m. p. sxx." [G. L.] EDIMON {'Epffxij.wi'), a city of the tribe of Simeon {Josh. six. 7), mentioned by Zechariah as the extremity of the land of Judah (xiv. 10). Placed by Eusebius S. of Daroma, 16 miles from Eleutheropolis. ( Onomast. s. vv. 'Epe/igdir/, 'Pe/x/xa.) He places another town of the same name 15 miles north of Jerusalem. (76. s. v. 'Pe^^oCs.) [G. W.] EIOBE, in North Gallia, a name which appears in the Table on a road which passes from Angusto- uiagus (Senlis) through Calagum (Chailli). Eiobe comes after Calagum, but the distance is not given. A road, which appears to be in the direction of a Roman road, runs from Chailli to Orbi, a few miles north of the Seine ; and D'Anville thinks that the name Orhl and the distance from Riobe to Condate (Montereau-sur-Yonne) enable us to fix Riobe at Oi-bi. [Condate, No. 2; Calagum.] [G. L.] EIPA (Plin. iii. 1. s. 3, according to the Codex Eeg., though the common reading is Ripepora), a place in Hispania Baetica, which according to Rez- zonico {Disquisit. Piin. ii. p. 11) occupied the site of the modern Castro del Rio. (Comp. Ukert, vol. ii. part i. p. 380.) [T. H. D.] EIRA, a river on the E. coast of Thrace. (Plin. jv. 11. s. 18.) Eeichards conjectures it to be the Kamczik. [T. H. D.] EISARDIR (Polyb. ap. Plin. v. 1), a harbour on the W. coast of Mauretania, which may be identified with the AcRA of the Ship-journal of Hanno CAfcpa, Peripl. § 5, ed. Miiller). It now bears the name of Agader, signifying in the Berber language (Par.adis, Dictionnaire Berbere, p. 110) "a fortress,' and is described as being the best roadstead along t e coast of Marocco. Agader or Santa Cruz, which was called Guertguessem in the time of Leo Africanus, was walled round and strengthened by batteries in 1503 by Emanuel, king of Portugal; but was taken from the Portuguese by the Moors in 1536. (Jack- son, Marocco, p. 113; Journ. of Geogr. Soc. vol. vi. p. 292.) [E. B. J.] RITHYMNA. [Rhithymna.] RITTIUM ('PiTTiov), a place in the south-east of Lower Pannonia, situated close to the Danube, and on the road leading to Taumnuin. {It. Ant. p. 242; Ptol. ii. 16. § 5; Tab. Pent.) It con- tained a garrison of Dalmatian cavalry. {Not. Imp., where tlie name is mis-spelt Rictium.) According to Muchar {Noricum, i. p. 265), its site is now oc- cupied by the town of Titel. [L. S.] EODUMNA. EITUJIAGUS, in Gallia, a Mansio which is placed in the Anton. Itin. and in the Table on a road on the north side of the Seine from Eotomagus {Rouen) to Lutetia {Paris) ; and between Eoto- magus and Petromantalum. The distance of Eitu- magus from Eotomagus is viii. in the Table and ix. in the Itin., which distance fixes Eitumagus near Radepont, at the passage of the Andelle, a small stream which flows into the Seine. [G. L.] EIUSIAVA {'Piovaiava), a town in the Agri Decumates, in Germany (Ptol. ii. 11. § 30), is commonly believed to have been situal^d in the Riesgau, or Ries, which may possibly derive its name from it. [L. S.] EOBOGDII {'Po€6y5Loi, Ptol. ii. 2. § 3), a people in the northernmost part of Hibernia, whose name, according to Camden (p. 1411), is still perpetuated in that of a small episcopal town called Roboqh in Ulster. [T. H. D.] EOBOGDIUM PROM. {^PoiiyZwv &Kpov, Ptol. ii. 2. § 2), a promontory on the N. coast of Hibernia in the territory of the Robogdii, conjectured by Camden (p. 141 1) to be Fair Head. [T. H. D.J ROBORARIA, a station on the Via Latina, 16 miles from Rome, the site of which is probably marked by the Osteria delta Molara, at the back of the hill of Tusculum {Itin. Ant. p. 305 ; Westphal, RiJin. Kampaqne, pp. 76, 97.) [Via Latina.] [E.H.B.] ROBORETUM. [Gallaeclv, Vol. I. p. 934, a.] ROBRICA, in Gallia, is placed by the Table on the north side of the Loire, on a road from Julio- magus {Angers) to Caesarodunum {Tours). The distance of Robriea from Juliomagus is xvii. and xxviiii. from Caesarodunum. D'Anville fixed Ro- briea at the distance of 16 Gallic leagues from Angers at the bridges of Longiie, over the Latan, which flows into the Loire. He conjectures that Eobrica contains the Celtic element Briga, a bridge or river ford, which is probable. Though D'Anville cannot make the two actual distances severally cor- respond to those of the Table, he finds that the whole distance between Angers and Tours agrees with the whole distance in the Table between Julio- magus and Caesarodunum. Walckenaer has shown in a Me'moire cited by Ukert {Gallien, p. 481), that the ancient road deviated in many places from the modern road. [G. L.] EOBUR. Ammianus IMarcellinus (xsx. 3) men- tions a fortress named Eobur, which Valentinian I., A.D. 374, built near Basilia {Basle) on the Ehine in Switzerland. Schoepflin guessed that Eobur was on the site of the cathedral of Basle, but the words of Ammianus do not give much support to this con- jecture : " Prope Basiliam, quod appellant accolae Eobur." Others have made other guesses. [G. L.] RODIUM, in North Gallia, is placed in the Table on a road between Samarobriva {Amiens) and Au- gusta Suessionum {Soissons). It is xs. from Samarobriva to Rodium, a distance which followed along the ancient road brings us to Roie, which re- presents Eodium ; but D'Anville says that to make the ancient and modern distances agree we must go further, and as far as the belfry named Roie- eglise. [G. L.] EODUMNA ('PoSoD/ivo), in Gallia, is one of the towms of the Segusiani. (Ptol. ii. 8. § 14.) Ro- dumna appears in the Table on a road which leads to Lugdunum {Lyon) through Forum Segusia- norum. Rodumna is Roanne on the west bank of the Loire, which gave name to the former district of RoaniMis. [G. L.]
