LAEPA
LAEPA (
Lepe, near
Ayamonte), a city of the Turdetani, on the coast of Baetica, a little E. of the mouth of the Anas (
Guadalquivir: Mela, 3.1; comp.
Plin. Nat. 3.1. s. 3, where, however, the reading is doubtful ;
Bell. Alex. 57, where
Laepam should probably be substituted for the MS. readings of
Leptim or
Leptum; Florez,
Esp. S. vol. x. p. 45, vol. xii. pp. 56, 57; Ukert, vol. ii. pt. 1. p. 339.
This place must not be confounded with Ptolemy's
LAEPA which is only a various reading for
ILIPA).
