FORUM LIGNEUM
FORUM LIGNEUM is placed by the Antonine Itin. on the road from Caesar Augusta (
Saragosa),
[p. 1.910]in Spain, to Beneharmum, in Gallia. [BENEHARMUM.] The distance from Summus Pyrenaeus to Forum Ligneum is marked 5, and from Forum Ligneum to Aspaluca (
Pont Lesquit), 7. Walckenaer takes these distances to be Gallic leagues, though one would suppose that they are Roman miles. However, distances measured in a mountain pass are very loose; and there is no certainty about the exact position of Forum Ligneum.
