 Cluverius, following Fazello, placed Aluntium at a spot near San Filadelfo (modern San Fratello), where the ruins of an ancient city were then visible, and regarded San Marco d'Alunzio as the site of Agathyrna (now identified with modern Capo d'Orlando).Aluntium minted coins in antiquity, some of which survive.After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, "Aluntium" became part of the Byzantine Empire as Demenna.
