Durocassio

Dreux

Dvrocassio is Durocasses, today Dreux in France, on the road from Évreux to Chartres. The name can be followed through Merovingian coins, which read Dorocas, into the medieval castle town of Dreux. The Roman register of routes adds a road from here towards Paris by way of Diodurum. On the map, both distances around Dreux, from Condate and on to Chartres, seem to need correcting.
