MEGARIS (Ancient city) CAMPANIA
A small island on the coast of Campania, mentioned by Pliny (iii. 6. s. 12), who
places it between Pausilypus and Neapolis; it can therefore be no other than the
islet or rock now occupied by the Castel dell' Ovo. It is evidently the same which
is called by Statius Megalia. (Stat. Silv. ii. 2. 80.)
