Touxion — by N. Purcell — last modified Jan 03, 2023 03:53 PM

Touxion was a Samnite metropolis that is referred to in several obscure texts. It is linked to the career of Fabius Fabricianus, a kinsman of Fabius Maximus, who is said to have sacked the city and carried off to Rome as plunder the statue of Aphrodite Nikephoros (a.k.a. Venus Victrix). The location of Touxion is uncertain. Torelli speculates that it may have been conquered in the campaigns of 292-1 B.C. along with Cominium and Venusium. Smith notes the Oresteia-like parallels in this narrative.

Now unlocated, Tripodiskos was a market center of Megara. According to Pausanias, its name is connected to the activities of Coroebus who was ordered by the Pythia of Delphi to carry the Delphic tripod and to establish a new shrine to the god at the place where it fell from his hands. This was Tripodiskos; Pausanias indicates that Coroebus' tomb was located in its agora.

Tutienses cf. Tutia/Tutienses — by N. Purcell — last modified Jan 03, 2023 03:51 PM

"Tutienses" refers to an ancient tribe of Latium included in Pliny's geographical accounting of Roman Italy. In compiling this entry for the Barrington Atlas, N. Purcell has indicated that reference also be made to the toponym "Tutia fl.", a river discussed by Livy in the twenty-sixth book of his history. During the Second Punic War Hannibal realized that his chances of capturing the city of Rome herself were dwindling. At that point, Hannibal moved his camp back to the river Tutia, located 6 miles from the city (sex milia passuum ab urbe). Hannibal proceeded from that point to the grove of Feronia located at the foot of Mt. Soracte in South Etruria.
