or Leontivat, in Ancient Geography, a town of Sicily on the south side of the river Teras, 20 miles north-west of Syracuse. The territory, called Campi Leontini, was extremely fertile (Cicero); these were the Campi Leontini anciently so called; the seat of the Leontines, according to the commentators on the poets. The name Leontini is from Leo, the im-

pression on their coin being a lion. Now call Lentini, a town situated in the Val di Noto, in the south-east of Sicily.
