NICO´TERA

NICO´TERA (Nicotera), a town of Bruttium, known only from the Antonine Itinerary (pp. 106, 111), which places it 18 M. P. south of Vibo Valentia, on the road to Rhegium. It is repeatedly mentioned in the middle ages, and still exists under its ancient name as a considerable town and an episcopal see.
