TASCIACA
TASCIACA a town in Gallia, placed by the Table between Avaricum (
Bourges) and Caesarodunum (
Tours).
The first station from Avaricum is Gabris, supposed to be
Chabris on the
Cher, and the next is Tasciaca, supposed to be
Tezée, also on the
Cher. But the number xxiiii. placed in the Table at the name of Tasciaca, which number should represent the distance from
Chabris to
Tezée, is nearly the distance between
Tezée and
Tours, and accordingly there is some error here. The Table gives no distance between Tasciaca and Caesarodunum. (D'Anville,
Notice; Ukert,
Gallien.)
