Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: I27-INV
INDUSTRIA (mod. Monteu da Po) , an
ancient
 
town
  of Liguria, 20 M. N.E. of
Augusta
  Taurinorum. Its
original
  name was Bodincomagus, from the Ligurian name of the Padus (mod. Po), Bodincus, i.e. bottomless (Plin. Hist. Nat. iii. 122), and this still appears on
inscriptions
  of the early imperial period. It stood on the right
bank
  of the river, which has now changed its course over r m. to the
north
 . It was a flourishing
town
 ; with municipal rights, as excavations (which have brought tc.
light
  the forum, theatre, baths, &c.) have shown, but appears to have been deserted in the 4th
century
  A.D.
See A. Fabietti in Atti della Societe), di Archeologia di Torino, iii, 17 seq.; Th.
Mommsen
