Bovium
Bovium a place in Britain, ten miles, according to the Itinerary, from Deva (Chester), in the direction of Uroconium (Uroxeter), and placed, by modern inquirers, at Bangor, Aldford, Bunbury, Stretton, and other unsatisfactory localities south of Chester. In order to increase the claims of Bangor the v has been changed into n, and Bonium suggested. (Horseley, Britannia Romana, 3.2.)
