CASTRA RAVENNATIUM
* mentioned only in the
Breviarium of the Regionary
Catalogue, and in the Mirabilia (10), where they are said to
have been on
the right bank of the Tiber (cf. LP xvii. I). These barracks
evidently
were for the use of sailors from the imperial fleet at
Ravenna (HJ 647;
BC 1914, 391; DuP 58), who were detailed for special duty in the city.
(Cf.
CASTRA MISENATIUM.) The name was preserved
in that of the
church of S. Stephanus Rapignani near S. Crisogono (HCh
483).
