CO´RBILO
CO´RBILO (
Κορβίλων), a trading town in Gallia,
[p. 1.669]on the
Loire. It was a flourishing place in. the time of Pytheas. (Strab. p. 190.) No extant writer except Strabo mentions the place. De Valois and D'Anville would fix it at
Coeron, about two leagues below
Nantes, and on the same side of the river. Walckenaer supposes that it may be
Corsep, because Corsep is nearer the mouth of the
Loire; but Strabo simply says that. Corbilo was on the river.
