 Strabo writes it was located in Bruttium, a "little above" Consentia (modern Cosenza).The "Barrington Atlas of the Greek and Roman World" places the site of the city in the vicinity of Cosenza, but the village Acri and Castrolibero has been suggested as a more precise location.According to Strabo it was believed to have been the capital of the Oenotrian kings once.
