AQUÆ Sextiæ, a colony to the north of Marfeilles, so called, both from the founder Sextius Calvinus, and from its quantity of water, and number of cold and hot springs; built after the defeat of the Salyes, or Salvii, whose territory in the south of Provence reached from the Rhone to the borders of Italy, (Livy, Velleius, Strabo, Ptolemy). By an inscription the colony appears to have been either increased or renewed by Augustus. In the Notitia it is called Civitas Aquensis. Now Aix. Here the Teutones and Cimbri were defeated with a great slaughter by Marius. E. Long. 6. 4. Lat. 43. 4.
