MASSAVA in Gallia, is placed by the Table between Brivodurum ( Briare) and Ebirnum, which is Nevirnum ( Nevers) on the Loire. The distance is marked the same from Massava to Brivodurum and to Nevirnum, being xvi. in each case. Massava is Mesveor Mèves, a place where the small river Masauflows into the Loire; but the numbers in the Table do not agree with the real distance, as D'Anville says, and he would correct them in his usual way.
