Corsura
Corsura is only a label that scholars have attached to a nameless island on the map, and even that reading is uncertain. The island carries a small drawing of a building, described as a temple with six or eight sides and a red frame, which suggests a sanctuary rather than an inn. It is usually equated with Aegimurus in the Gulf of Carthage, probably today's Zembra in Tunisia, some thirty Roman miles, about forty-four kilometres, from Carthage. Ships crossing from Sicily to Africa could stop there, and the poet Vergil seems to mean these rocks when he speaks of the Altars.
