PITULUM
PITULUM (Pitulanus:
Piolo), a town of Umbria, mentioned only by Pliny (
3.14. s. 19), who enumerates among the towns of that region the “Pitulani, cognomine Pisuertes et alii Mergentini.” Both names are otherwise unknown, but according to Cluverius there is a village called
Piolo in the Apennines between
Camerino and
Matilica, which probably retains the name of one or the other. (Cluver.
Ital. p. 614.)
