Barrington Atlas: BAtlas 9 D4 Victoria?
Barrington Atlas follows Rivet & Smith by identifying Victoria with modern Inchtuthil, and Bannatia with Dalginross. Frere rather persuasively equates Inchtuthil with Pinnata Castra, and with less certainty suggests that Victoria is modern day Dalginross. RCAHMS tentatively accepts Frere's view.

Ουικτωρια (Ptolemy 2,3,9) = Victorie (Ravenna Cosmography 224) was probably a camp near Dunning, from which Agricola's troops marched out to vitory on the Ochil Hills. Dalginross fort is most likely to be Roman Veromo.
