PINE´TUS(Πίνητος, Ptol. 2.6.39), a town of Lusitania, on the road from Bracara to Asturica ( Itin. Ant. p. 422). Ptolemy places it between the Durius and the Minius, and consequently in the territory of the Gallaeci; but, according to the Itinerary, it must have lain S. of the former river. Variously identified with Pinhel, Pinheira, and Mirandella.
