BARDERATE

BARDERATE a town of Liguria, included by Pliny (3.5. s. 7) among the “nobilia oppida” of the interior of that province, between the Apennines and the Padus; but notwithstanding this epithet, we find no other mention of the name; and its situation is wholly unknown. The modern town of Brà, supposed by some writers to occupy its site, is certainly too near Pollentia.
