PRAETO´RIUM AGRIPPI´NAE

PRAETO´RIUM AGRIPPI´NAE This Praetorium appears in the Table, and is distinguished by the representation of a large building. D'Anville conjectures that it may have taken its name from Agrippina, the daughter of Germanicus and the mother of Nero, who gave her name to the Colonia Agrippinensis (Cologne). The Praetorium is placed above Lugdunum Batavorum (Leiden) at the distance of 11. D'Anville concludes that it is Roomburg near Leiden, where it is said that many Roman antiquities have been found.
