abstract:
The paper examines some toponyms, which are found in a late-Latin pilgrimage text from the 6th century, known as "De situ Terrae Sanctae". Ancient biblical and extra-biblical tradition is compared with medieval and late-antiquity lexicographical works, such as glossaries, in order to establish a possible history of the semantic and narrative interpretation of each term.
