Barrington Atlas: BAtlas 42 Castellum Amerinum
The Barrington Atlas Directory notes: near, but not at, Horta. The modern locality of Seripola, a river port associated with ancient Horta (modern Orte) has been suggested as the possible location of Castellum Amerinum. The Roman river port was discovered in 1962-63.
