CONDOCHATES. Among several Roman inscriptions fonnd there, one, if it is rightly copied, contains the name of the em- peror Tib. Claudius Caesar; and another contains tlie name of Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Ger- manlcus. Caesar (jB. G, iii. 9) built ships on the Loire for his war with the Veneti ; and if there was a town on the site of NctrUes in his time, lus ships passed it in their way down the Loire. There was a Roman road from Limonnm (Pof(ter«} to JVitmtet, which in the Table is named Portu Namnetu. There was also a road along the north bank of the Loire from Juliomagus (Anffers) to Nttntet. A Roman rood ran from NanUs NW. through Dariorigum ( Vtumei) to Gesocribate {Brest). All these routes detennine the position of the Portus Namnetum, and show that it was of importance. Parts of the Ro- man road between Nantes and Vcames are said to be well preserved. [G. L.] CONDOCHATES (Kop^x^^^j Arrian, Jndic, 4; Plin. vL 18. s. 22), a river which flowed into the Ganges, and was, according to Pliny, navigable. Modem geographers are agreed that it is now repre- sented by the Gtmduk. [V.] CONDRU'SI. The Condmsi are mentioned by Caesar {B. G. ii. 4) with other tribes, as called by the general name of Germani. They were within the limits of the Belgae of Caesar, and joined the great Belgic confederation to oppose the Roman pro- consul (b. c. 57). The Condmsi and Eburoncs were dependent on the Treviri (^. G. iv. 6.) The chief part of the territory of the Eburones was between the Mosa {Maas) and the /?Atne, and their neighbours on the north were the Menapii. The Segni and Condmsi were between the Eburones and Treviri. Their position is therefore fixed. A docu- ment of the middle ages places the Comitatus Con- drustus, or Condorustus, between the Arduennenses and the Ripuarii; and the Ripuarii were on the Rhine. There is a district in the Pays de Liege still called Condroz or Condrost, east of the Maas, D'Anville states that the archdeaconry of CondroZf in the bishopric of Li^, is '* along the Maas, on both sides of tlie Ourthe" which is not quite clear. Walckenaer makes the Condrusi extend on the east ndd of the Maas firom Liege to Dinant. Hug, on the east side of the Maas, about half way between Liege and Namur, is the chief place in Condroz. CONDYLON, in Thessaly, is mentioned by Livy as one of the four fortresses which defended Tempe. (Liv. xliv. 6 ) It was also called Gonno-Condylon, and was one of the towns of the PerrhaebL (Liv. xxxix. 25.) Leake places it on the left bank of the Peneus between Balamut and the ascent to Jidpsani. (Leake, Northern Greecej vol. iii. p. 397.) CONEMBRI'CA {Leynas, S. of Crnmbra), a city of Lusitania, on the high road from Olisipo to Bra- cara. {Itin. AnL p. 421 ; Pliu. iv. 35 ; Phleg. Trail. de Longaev. I.) [P*^] CONFLUENTES (Coblem), a town in Gallia, at the junction of the Rhine and Mosel, is first men- tioned by Suetonius. [Ambiatinus.] Ammianus (xvi 3) describes it as a place ** ubi amnis Mosella oonfunditnr Rheno." This description and the identity of the name prove the position of Con- fluentes ; but it is said that there is not a trace of Roman remains oa the spot. The Antonine Itin., the Table, and the Notitia also mention the place, which must have been an important position on the Rhenish frontier. Caesar does not mention Confluentes tmder any name; nor does he mention the Moselj unless he CONOPE. 655 means this river by the words "ad oonfluentem Mosae et Rheni " (B. G. iv. 1 5) ; and that he does mean the junction of the Mosel and Bhine seems to be quite clear from the narrative of his attack on the Germans and their defeat. Confluentes was in the territory of the Treviri, as we may collect from Caesar; and a middle age authority, quoted by D'An- ville, says "Cophelince urbs, Treviricae dvitatia archiepiscop." The term " confluentes " was used by the Romans to express the junction of two rivers, as in Livy (iv. 17). Thitre is a CdbHenz in Switzerland in the canton of AargoH^ at the junction of the Aar and the Rhine. It is said that many Roman antiquities have been found here ; and we may infer that the Roman name of the place was Confluentes. [G. L.] CONGAVATA, in Britain, mentioned in the Notitia as the station of the Second Cohort of the Lergi. Generally identified with SUvnwix in Cum* beriand. [R. G. L.] CCNGEDUS {Codes), a tributary of the Iberns, near Bilbilis, mentioned by Martial {Epig. i. 60). [P.S.] CONGUSTUS (RoyyowTTos), a place in Galatia, mentioned by Ptolemy (v. 4), and apparently the Congusso of the Table, which it places on a road from Amorium to Salaberina. [G. L.] CONIACL [CoLCHi Ikdtae.] CONrACI, CONISCI. [Cantabkia.] CO'NII or CUNEI (Ko^i'eoi, Appian, Hisp. 57 ; K^yioi, Polyb. x. 7. § 5), a people in the S. of Lusi- tania, W. of the Pillanj of Hercules and of Baetica, with a capital city called Conistorgis or Conistorsis. (Strab. iii. p. 141.) They may perhaps be iden- tified with the Kvviau}i, whom Herodotus makes the westernmost people of the whole earth (ii. 33, iv. 49). They dwelt in that port of Lusitania which the Romans called Cijnbus, a name appro- priate to the shape of the land, and thus furnishing one of the many examples in which the etymological significance of a name coincides accidentally with its historical usage. [P. S.] CONISTORGIS, CONISTORSIS. [Conii.] CONNI, in Phrygia Magna, is placed by the Table between Eucarpia and Nacolea, 32 miles from Eucarpia and 40 from Nacolea. Pliny (v. 32) means this place when he speaks of Conium, and Ptolemy (v. 2) has it Conna. Harduin observes on the passage of Pliny (v. 32) that the old reading was Iconium. Under the Byzantine empire Ccnna was called Cone, and was a bishopric of Phiygia Salutaris, of which Synnada was the metropolis. It is veiy diffi- cult to fix the position of this pUice from the Table and from Ptolemy. Leake supposes that Conni may be " not far to the southward oiAltun Task, near where the roads to Altun Tosh, both from Karahissar and from Sanduldi, cross the ancient road." (Leake, Asia Minor, p. 166.) AUm Tash is a little north of 39^ N. lat., and due south of Kutahigah. [G. L.] CONOTE, afterwards ARSI'NOE {Kuwiini : Eih. KMVtnrfvs, Kuywirtrris, Kwy^ircuos: *Apciy&rii Eih. 'Aptrivotrni, *Ap<rivo9us : Anghelolastro), a town of Aetolia. near the eastern bank of the Achelous, and 20 stadia from the ford of Hub river. It was only a village, till it was enlarged by Arsinog, the wife and sister of Ptolemy Philidelphus. Polybius, in his histoiy of the Social War (b. c. 220—217), calls it Conope, though elsewhere he calls it AfKinoe or Arsinoia ('AfHTiyoro). It is mentioned by Cicero under the name of Ajsinoe.
