S.] CTTLARO, afterwards GRATIAKOTOLIS (Crs- (uila), a town in Gallia, on the liars (/«r«), a branch of the AAone. It ia placed in the Table, under the cormpted name of Cnlahonc, on a road btxa the Alpia Cottta (^MntU Genhre) to Vienna ( Vienne). It has been a matter of dispute whether Cnlaro was in the territory of the Allobroges, bnt there ia liltls donbt that it was. There ia a letter from Plancna to Cicero (ad Fam. i. 23), which ia dated " Cnlarone ei finiboa Allobrogum," Tho common reading ia "Civarone," or "Ciuronej" but there is also a reading " Cuisrone," which in fact ia the same, the only diflerence being in the position of the " L" There seema no doubt that thin riame re- presents " Cnlarone." A modem French writer, who admits that Phincus wrote hie letter from CuUro, maintains that "ex finibns" means "near the fron- tiera of the Allobroges," a trunslation quite incon- aiatent with Latin nsage. The Geographer of Ra- venna writes the name '* Coraro," instead of ** Cu- laro;" and "Cnraro' only difiers from "Cuiaro," one of the readings inCicero'a text, in a lingle letter, " i," which mw esMly be confounded with " r." It appears bvoi two inscriptions found on one of the old gates of Crenotte, — one lA which haa only been demolished wiihin the memory of man, — that Colars retained Its name to a. d. 2S8. Nothing is known (f Cuiaro (or a long ^me after this letter of riancuB. Three hundred and thirty-two years later U. AureUna Val.

Thia is proved by thi two inacriptiona, which have been correctly pub- lished in the work of Champollion de Figeac, Anti- piiUt dt GrtaobU. It is siud that 83 inacriptiana have been fonnd at Grenoble at diflerent timea. The nsloratim of the walls of Cnlaro, already men- timed, was mads about a. d. S88. In A. n. 379, the emperor Gratianus, being in Gaul, enlarged Cn- laro, and gave to it bis own name Gratianopolis, which it pnaerrea in the corrupted tem of Gre- noble. It seema likely that Gratianua made it a bishop^s see^ at least we know that there waa a biahop of Gratianopolis in a. d. 381. Civilas Gra- tianopolis appears in the Notitia of the prorinoes of Gallia among the uUes of the divi«an of Gallia , called Viennenusj and yet the old name Cuiaro waa
