MONA

This article appears in Volume V18, Page 684 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MOL-MOS
MONA , the name used by classical writers, and in particular by Tacitus, to denote
Anglesey
  (q.v.). This
island
  was raided by the
Roman
  general Suetonius about A.D. 6o and conquered by. Agricola about A.D. 79. The Romans probably
mined
  copper there, but no trace has yet been found of any
Roman
  military
post
 , and the villages of the inhabitants which have been recently excavated show only mediocre traces of Roman civilization. The name Mona seems also to have been occasionally used, perhaps from ignorance, for the other large
island
  lying between
England
  and
Ireland
 , Man. The ancient name of this latter was probably not unlike that of Mona, but is not accurately known to us (? Monapia, Manavia). (F. J. H.)
