CARVO
CARVO a place on the road from Lugdunum Batavorum (
Leyden) to Vemania (
Immenstadt). The Antonine Itin. makes one station between
Leyden and Trajectum (
Utrecht), and another between
Utrecht and Carvo. The Itin. places Harenatio or Arenacum next after Carvo; but the Table makes Castra Herculis the next station, and the distance from Carvo to Castra Herculis is xiii., which is assumed to be M. P. D'Anville affirms that we cannot look for this place lower down than
Wageningen, on the right bank of the
Neder Rhyn. Walckenaer places it a little lower at
Rhenen, which must be near the mark. Some other geographers have fixed Carvo where it cannot be.
