GRISELUM
GRISELUM (Eth.
Griselicus), a place in Gallia Narbonensis. Spon published an inscription found at the baths of
Greoulx, near
Riez, in the department of
Basses Alpes. Greoulx is near the right bank of the
Verdon, a little above its junction with the
Durance. The inscription is “Nymphis xi. Griselicis.” Papon made the ridiculous mistake of supposing that the numerals marked the number of these water nymphs. Walckenaer observes that XI. M. P. is the exact distance between
Greoulx and Reii (
Riez).
