 Taurasia is mentioned as a town only in the epitaph for Lucius Cornelius Scipio Barbatus, which mentioned that he captured "Taurasia, Cisauna, Samnium".It has been speculated that Aletrium, whose name is found in Pliny, is modern Calitri, a village in the upper valley of the River "Aufidus" (Ofanto), not far from Compsa (Conza della Campania).It is impossible (as already noted) to determine which of the other obscure names given by the same author belonged to the Hirpini.
