PANTALARIA, an island in the Mediterranean
sea, between Sicily and the main land of Africa, about
17 miles in circumference. It is near the coast of Tu-
nis, and abounds in cotton, fruits, and wind; but the
inhabitants are obliged to bring all their corn to Sicily,
as it belongs to the king of the two Sicilies. E. Long.
