CORBULO´NIS MUNIMENTUM

CORBULO´NIS MUNIMENTUM a fort built by Corbulo in the country of the Frisians, which probably was the foundation of the modern town of Groningen. In the year 1818 a bridge was discovered in the neighbourhood, leading through a marsh, about 3 miles long, and 12 feet broad: this bridge was probably connected with the fort of Corbulo. (Tac. Ann. 11.19; comp. Wilhelm, German. p. 154.)
