AQUÆ Sextieæ, a colony to the north of Marseilles, so called both from the founder Sextius Clavinus, 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 on 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 great slaughter by Marius. E. Long. 6. 4. N. Lat. 48. 4.
