PLANASIA (Pianosa) Tuscany, Italy.

A triangular islet of the Tuscan Archipelago lying between Elba and Montecristo. This is the place to which Augustus relegated his grandson Agrippa Postumus and where the latter was subsequently assassinated. Interesting remains of an elaborate Roman villa have been found, including sea baths and a little private theater.
