Silumnus (island)
natural · 30 BC – 2099 AD · location approximate
Pliny mentions a Silumnus island as one of several "inter Hiberniam ac Britanniam". It is likely to be the same island as that recorded by Ptolemy under the name "Limnos". The Barrington Atlas tentatively associated Silumnus with modern Lambay (Ireland).
