RICINA
Marche, Italy.
A town in Picenum
on the left bank of the Flosis (modern Potenza) at the
crossing of the road from Auximum to Urbs Salvia;
after a restoration by Pertinax and Septimius Severus
it was called colonia Helvia Ricina Pertinax. Extensive
remains of an amphitheater, a theater, baths, and a
bridge are to be seen. A collection of marbles, for the
most part from this site, is in the Pahazzo Comunahe at
Macerata.
