Road station

olivam

Sourinine? (Barrington) · Drah el Arba (Miller)

Ad Olivam, at the olive tree, was a halt on the road between Sitifis and Saldae, now Bougie; the Roman register of routes counts thirty miles to it from Saldae. Its exact site is uncertain, perhaps Sourinine, while older research placed it at Drah el Arba. The map puts it twenty-five Roman miles beyond Ad Sava Municipium and thirty before Monte.
