[1045] It does not appear to be certain whether the Areva was the present Ucero, or the Arlanzon, which flows near Valladolid.
[1046] The modern Siguenza.
[1047] Now El Burgo d’Osma, in the province of Soria.
[1048] This must not be mistaken for the modern Segovia, between Madrid and Valladolid: it was a small town in the vicinity of Numantia.
[1049] Probably the present Lerma, on the river Arlanza.
[1050] The people of Asturica Augusta, now Astorga, in the province of Leon. The ruins of this fine city are said still to give a perfect idea of a fortified Roman town.
[1051] Their chief city stood on the site of the present Cigarrosa, or San Estevan de Val de Orres. Its ruins are still to be seen, and a Roman bridge, the people preserving a tradition that an old town once stood there called Guigurra.
[1052] The people of Lance or Lancia, probably the present Lollanco or Mansilla; though Oviedo has been suggested. This however may be the Ovetum mentioned by Pliny in B. xxxiv. c. 17.
[1053] Mentioned by Pliny in B. xix. c. 2, as famous for their flax. Their locality near the coast does not appear to be exactly known. The Pæsici previously mentioned were situate on the peninsula of Cabo de Penas.
[1054] Now the city of Lugo in Gallicia.
