AUSOBA

AUSOBA in Ireland, placed by Ptolemy (2.2.4) as the third river from the Boreum promontorium [p. 1.345][BOREUM], and as due north of the Sena. As it is more certain that the Sena is the Shannon than that the northern promontory is Malin Head, the outlet of Loch Corrib in Galway Bay best suits the somewhat equivocal condition of the river Ausoba.
