ARIACA
ARIACA or
ARTIACA, a town of Gallia, which is represented by
Arcis-sur-Aube, according to the Antonine Itin., which places it. between
Troyes and
Châlons. It is placed M. P. xviii., Leugas xii., from Tricasses (
Troyes); and M. P. xxxiii., Leugas xxii., from Durocatalauni (
Chdalons).
In both cases the measurement by Roman miles and Leugae, or Gallic leagues, agrees,--for the ratio is 1 1/2 Roman miles to a Leuga.
The actual measurements also agree with the Table. (D'Anville,
Notice, &c.)
