CAMARINA, in Ancient Geography, a city of Sicily, built by the Syracusans on an eminence near the sea, in the south of Sicily, to the west of the promontory Pachynum, between two rivers, the Hipparis and Oanus. Of so famous a city nothing now remains but its name and ancient walls, a mile and a half in compass, with the slight remains of houses: now called Camarana.
