[Andecavi.] ANDES, a village in the neighbourhood of Man- tua, known only frmi the circumstance of its having been the actual birthplace of Virgil (Donat VU, Virgil. 1 ; Hieron. Chron. p. 396), who is, however, commonly called a native of Mantua, because Andes belonged to the territory of that city. It is commonly supposed to be represented by the modem village of . Pi^ktj on the banks of the Mincius, about 2 miles below Mantua, but apparently with no other authority ^j^ than local tradition, which is in general entitled to but little weight (See Millin, Voyage dams le Afi- hnaU, vol. ii p. 301.) [E.H.B.J ANDETBIUM QKv^itrpuiV, Strab. p. 315; 'Ak- ZtKpiov, Ptol. ii. 17. § 11; ^Ap^piov, Dion Cass. Ivi. 12), a fortified town in Dalmatia near Salonae, which offered a brave resistance to Tiberius. ANDIZE'TH CAp^iCfrrtoi), one of the chief tribes in Pannonia, occupying the country about the southern part of the Dtave. (Strab. vil. p. 314; Plin. iii. 28, who calls them Andizetes.) [L. S.] ANDOSINI, a people in Spain between the Ibems and the Pyrenees, mentioned only in a passage of PolyMus (iii. 35), where some editors* proposed to read Ausetani. ANDBAPA CAySpova), also called Neoclandio- polls, a town of Paphlagoaia, near the river Halys, in the later province of Helenopontus, and the seat of a bishopric. There are coins of this town, bearing the dates and effigies of M. Aurelios, Septiroius Severus, and Caracalla. (Ptol. v.^4. § 6 j HierocL, v J t^ p. 701 ; Justin.

C. iv. 82) "VT^Stf says that Lentulos broke through the chain which crossed the entrance of the port, and went up the river to Myia. Beaufort {Kcavmaniaj p. 26) gives the name Andr&H to the river of Myra. On the north side of the entrance are the remains of large Boman hopiea, with a perfect inscription, whidi states that the horrea were Hadrian's: the date is Hadrian's third consulate, which is a.d. 119. Andriaca is mentioned by Ptolemy; and Pliny has " Andriaca civitas, Myra" (v. 27). Andriaca, then, is clearly the place at the mouth of the small river on which Myra stood, 20 stadia higher up. (Strab. p. 666.) It must have been at Ajidriaca, as Cramer observes, that St. Paul and his com- panions were put on board the ship of Alexandria. (^ActSf xxvii. 5, 6.) [G. L.] A'NDBIUS. [Troas.] ANDEOTOLIS (Av9pAv x6is,Vtol iv. 5. § 46 ; Hierod. p. 724 : Eth. 'AySpoiroXirY^s), the modem Chdbttr, was the chief town of the Andropolite nome in the Delta. It was seated on the left bank of the Nile, was the head-quarters of a legion (Not. Imp.), and a bishop's see. (Athanas. Ep. ad Antioch. p. 776.) From its name, which is involved in some obscurity, it would seem that the peculiar worship of the dty and nome of Andropolis was that of the Manes or Shades of the Dead. (Manetho, ap. Eiiseb. Chronioon.') Geographers have attempted, not very successfrilly, to identify Andropolis with the Ardiandiopolis of Herodotus (ii. 98), which, the historian adds, is not an Egyptian name, and with the Gynaecopolis of Strabo (p. 803). D'Anville supposes it to have been the same as the city An- thylla (^AwdvWa, Herod, ii. 97), the revenues of which were assigned to the Egyptian queens as sandal-money, or, as we term it, pin-money, lliis I custom, chancing to coincide with a Persian usage v«' y ^ .dm '• • -^Ov^ K 4 ak < -.
