Severus Mons

Dictionary of Greek and Roman Geography

SEVE´RUS MONS a mountain of Central Italy mentioned only by Virgil ( Aen. 7.713), who places it among the Sabines, and associates it with the Mons Tetrica. It therefore evidently belonged to the lofty central ranges of the Apennines, in that part of Italy, but cannot be identified with more accuracy. [APENNINUS.]
