Fraga

ΛΕΡΙΔΑ (Πόλη) ΚΑΤΑΛΟΝΙΑ
Fraga Lerida, Spain. Some 30 km SW of Lerida (Ilerda), and not mentioned in the sources. The Villa of Fortunatus, so called because the name occurs on one of its mosaics, is ca. 5 km to the N. A broad peristyle surrounded the various cubicula, which have mosaics with animal motives very unusual in Spain. Built in the 2d c. A.D., enlarged in the 3d and 4th, and abandoned in the 5th, it was a place for recreation rather than a source of economic development. (J. Arce, ed.)
