REGNUM
REGNUM a town of the Belgae in the S. of Britannia Romana, and seemingly a place of some importance, since there was a particular road to it. (
Itin. Ant. p. 477.) Camden (p. 133) identifies it with
Ringwood in
Hampshire. Horsley, on the contrary (p. 441), conjectures it to have been
Chichester ; but, though Roman antiquities have been found at
Chichester, its situation does not suit the distances given in the Itinerary.
