MAPONIS

MAPONIS in Britain, occurring in Geogr. Ravenn. among the diversa loca, without any clue to venn. among the diversa loca, without any clue to guide us to its locality. An inscription to a topical deity Mapon (Deo Mapono), discovered at Plumpton in Cumberland; and another (Apollini Mapono) at Ribchester, in Lancashire, merely strengthen the probability of the existence of a place so called in Britain, without disclosing its situation. Maporiton also appears in Geogr. Ravenn. among the towns in the north of Britain.
