RUSUCU´RRIUM,
RUSSUCU´RRIUM (
Plin. Nat. 5.1; It. Ant.;
Ῥουσσοκκόραι,
Ptol. 4.2.8), a town of Mauretania, which Claudius made a municipium (Plin.
l.c.), but which was afterwards a colonia (
Itin. Ant.). Barth (
Wanderungen, p. 60) has identified it with the landing-place
Dellys in
Algeria, where there is good anchorage.
