SULMO

SULMO (Sermoneta), an ancient city of Latium, mentioned only by Pliny (3.5. s. 9) among those which were extinct in his time, and incidentally noticed by Virgil. (Aen. 10.517.) It is in all probability the same place with the modern Sermoneta, which stands on a hill between Norba and Setia, looking over the Pontine Marshes.
