PRIFERNUM

PRIFERNUM a town of the Vestini, mentioned only in the Tabula, which places it 12 miles from Pitinum, the same distance from Amiternum, and 7 miles from Aveia. (Tab. Peut.) But the roads in this district are given in so confused a manner, that notwithstanding these data it is impossible to fix its site with any certainty. It is placed by Romanelli (vol. iii. p. 283) in the neighbourhood of Assergio, but this is little more than conjecture.
