Barrington Atlas: BAtlas 31 B4 *Castellum Turrense
The Barrington Atlas Directory notes: el Mehiriss. Rebuffat places this "Kastellum Turrensi(um)" at "Mens, près de Bordj Medjana MS" (i.e., in the same general vicinity, but TE could not find this toponym in 2025 and the location used by Fentress in BAtlas now falls (per OpenStreetMap) just inside the Bordj Bou Arreridj district, which borders on Medjana's territory.
