PUTPUT
PUTPUT a station in Africa Proper, 12 M. P. from Neapolis (
Nabel) (
Itin. Anton.; Peut. Tab.), which has been identified by Barth (
Wanderungen, pp. 142, 143) with
Hámâmât. Sir G. Temple (
Excursions, vol. ii. p. 10) considers it to be
SIAGUL (
Σιαγούλ, Ptol. 4.3.9), because of the two inscriptions with “Civitas Siagitana,” which Shaw found at
Hámâmât. (
Trav. p. 169.)
