mentioned in one of Cicero's letters (ad Att. 16.2), does not occur elsewhere, and is perhaps a false reading for Julia, and the same as the Julia spoken of ad Att. 15.29.
TU´TIA a small stream in the neighbourhood of Rome, mentioned only by Livy and Silius Italicus, who inform us that Hannibal encamped on its banks, when he was commencing his retreat from before the walls of Rome. (Liv. 26.11; Sil. Ital..) Livy places it 6 miles from the city, and it is probable that it was on the Salarian Way, by which Hannibal subsequently commenced his retreat: in this case it may probably be the stream now called the Fiume di Conca, which crosses that road between 6 and 7 miles from Rome, and has been supposed by Gell and Nibby to be the Allia. [ALLIA] Silius Italicus expressly tells us that it was a very small stream, and little known to fame. The name is written Turia in many editions of that poet, but it appears that the best MSS. both of Silius and of Livy have the form Tutia.
[E.H.B]TU´TIA (Τουττία, Plut. Sert. 19), a place in the territory of the Edetani in Hispania Tarraconensis not far from Sucro, the scene of a battle between Pompey and Sertorius (Plut. l. c.; Florus (Flor. 3.22.) It is thought to be the modern Tous. But perhaps the conjecture of Ukert (ii. pt. 1. p. 413) is correct that in both these passages we should read Turia.
