Victoria

Dictionary of Greek and Roman Geography

VICTO´RIA(Οὐικτωρία, Ptol. 2.3.9), the most eastern place belonging to the Damnonii in Britannia Barbara. Camden (p. 1190) thinks that it is Bede's Caer Guidi, and that it stood on Inchkeith Island, in the Frith of Forth;but Horsley is of opinion that it is Abernethy, near Perth.
