Kommentar (Köhner)
Eine Lokalisierung ist schwierig, da "Ad Mensulas" nicht identifizierbar ist. Vermutlich handelt es sich aber um eine Brücke / Station an der Brücke über den Umbro in der Nähe von Siena.

Auf der TP sind in nächster Nähe fünf Toponyme mit dem Namen Umbro eingetragen:
Die beiden Flüsse Fluvius Umbro = heutiger Ambra und Fluvius Umbro = heutiger Ombrone. Beide Flüsse wurden auf der TP zu einem Fluss zusammenkompiliert, sowie die drei Flussstationen Umbro Flumen = Brücke über den heutigen Ambra, Umbro Flumen = Brücke über den heutigen Ombrone in der Nähe von Siena und Umbro Flumen = Brücke über den heutigen Ombrone an der Küste.

Kommentar (Talbert):
See the note for the Vmbro Fl. (1) stretch on the route immediately above.

ItMiller 289 wants the name to refer, not to a route station, but to the river (#24), even though (as he realizes) it is written in black ink, not red; he believes the figures XV and X following Vmbro Fl. to be distances from Bitvriza, therefore. I hesitate to concur on either count. The river name is given, as usual, at its source; unusually, it is also repeated near the mouth, but that may be because the copyist visibly redrew its course there, and wished to confirm the name. For a river name also to be repeated halfway along its course is not the map`s regular practice. A further cause of confusion must be that copyists, if not even the mapmaker too, failed to realize that there are two rivers called Vmbro, one a tributary of the Arnvs, the other flowing into the Tyrrhenian Sea: see BAtlas 42 A3 and B2.

Miller, Itineraria, Sp. 296:
Umbro fl., Umbro (Ra), Umbron (Gu); j. bei Buonconvento am Fluß Ombrone. Von hier dürfte die via Clodia abzweigen nach Radicofani bis Acquapendente und in Valentano wieder it unserer Strecke zusammentreffen. 16.
