Agiria — by H.S. Sivan — last modified Jul 08, 2022 11:41 PM

A Roman road station in Spain mentioned only in the Antonine Itinerary, which places it between Albonica (unlocated) and Carae (unlocated) on the road between Laminium (probably Alhambra) and "Caesarea Augusta" (Zaragosa). No archaeological site can yet be tied conclusively to this mansio. BAtlas tentatively followed one of the potential identifications by placing the symbol at modern Calamocha, but other scholars have suggested modern Salvacañete instead.
