CEVA

This article appears in Volume V05, Page 777 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CAU-CHA
CEVA , a town of Piedmont,
Italy
 , in the province of
Cuneo
 , 33 M. E. by
rail
  from the town of
Cuneo
 , 1270 ft. above sea-level. Pop. (1901) 2703. In the middle ages it was a strong fortress defending the confines of Piedmont towards Liguria, but the fortifications on the
rock
  above the town were demolished in x800 by the
French
 , to whom it had been ceded in 1796. Its cheese (caseus cebanus) was famous in Roman times, but it does not seem ever to have been a Roman town. It lay on the road between Augusta Taurinorum and Vada Sabatia. A branch railway runs from Ceva through Garessio, with its
marble
  quarries, to Ormea (2398 ft.), 22 M. to the
south
  through the upper valley of the Tanaro, which in Roman times was under Albingaunum (Th. Mommsen in Corp. Incr. Lat. v. (Berlin, 1877), p. 898). From Ormea a road runs
south
  to (31 m.) Oneglia on the Ligurian
coast
 .
