Praetorium Agrippinae

Dictionary of Greek and Roman Geography

PRAETO´RIUM AGRIPPI´NAET his Praetorium appears in the Table, and is distinguished by the representation of a large building. D'Anville conjectures that it may have taken its name from Agrippina, the daughter of Germanicus and the mother of Nero, who gave her name to the Colonia Agrippinensis ( Cologne). The Praetorium is placed above Lugdunum Batavorum ( Leiden) at the distance of 11. D'Anville concludes that it is Roomburgnear Leiden, where it is said that many Roman antiquities have been found.
