VIPOSCIANA
VIPOSCIANA a place in Mauretania Tingitana, on the road from Tocolosida to Tingis. (
Itin. Ant. p. 23.) Mannert (x. pt. ii. p. 487) supposes that it is the place called Prisciana by Mela (3.10. sub fin.), and
Πτισκίανα or
Πισκιάνα by Ptolemy (
4.1.14).
The same author identifies it with
Mergo, whilst Lapie takes it to be
Soe-el-Arba, and Graberg di Hemso,
Dar-el-Hhamara. [
