Commentary on the Toponym:	Kommentar (Talbert): The initial "C" is undoubtedly a slip for "E", but "C" is what is written. -> stretch to Clucar: The start of this stretch is not marked. -> stretch to Membrissa: The linework for this stretch is not marked. ItMiller 934 and Map 288 make the missing linework for the isolated distance figure VII link Tichilla and Clefantaria. But the figure`s placement, not to mention the greater proximity of Clefantaria to Membrissa on the ground (BAtlas 32 E3), suggest that the link should be between these two places instead. Note that, with the link restored, the start of the Clefantaria stretch comes to be marked by the fork in the route. Miller, Itineraria, Sp. 934: Elefantaria, Strecke 136; j. Ahmed Djedidi. Der Verbindungsstrich fehlt. Reste der alten Brücke bei Medjez gehören vielleicht hierher. 12, etwas zu viel, die Entfernung von (Membrissa bis Tignica) Medjez el Bab bis Ain Tunga beträgt nur 20. Dazwischen die Meilensteine 69. 70. 71. Miller, Itineraria, Sp. 942: Elefantaria, it. (Ra); j. Ahmed Djedidi. Von hier Abzweigung nach Tichilla über eine noch sichtbare Bagradas-Brücke bei der Stadt Testur. 13. Kommentar (RE): https://elexikon.ch/RE/V,2_2321.png Elephantaria (meistens Elefant- geschrieben).
