APPENDIX
The Ripa Pannonica in Historic Sources and Old Maps
Zs. Visy
The earliest depictions of the Ripa Pannonica are from antiquity. On one page of the Tabula Peutingeriana,
the only map from antiquity that has survived – in the form of a Byzantine copy – to this day, the
fortifications of the Pannonian limes along the Danube can be seen. The place names with data on
distances, along with the Itenerariaum Antonini and other epigraphic sources, have contributed a great
deal to the determination of the names of the limes fortifications.
