Item proponebant Massilienses quod Tharasconenses exigebant et capiebant quamdam exactionem novam, quam Cissam appellant ; ... et quod Massilienses sint immunes apud Arelatenses et Turasconenses a præstatione xviij. denariorum et ab aliis exactionibus novis et Cissa prædicta.Vide supra Cisa 2.
CISSA(Κίσσα, Plb. 3.763; Coins; Scissis, Liv. 21.60; prob. Guisona), an inland city of Hispania Citerior, in the neighbourhood of which Cn. Scipio defeated and took the Carthaginian general Hanno and the Spanish chieftain Indibilis, in the first year of the Second Punic War, B.C. 218. Some identify it with the CINNA(Κίννα) mentioned by Ptolemy (Ptol. 2.6.72) as a city of the Jaccetani. (Marca, Hisp. p. 202; Florez, Esp. S. 24.74; Sestini, pp. 132, 163; Num. Goth.;Ukert, vol. ii. pt. 1. p. 425.) [P.S] COIN OF CISSA.
CISSAa small town on the river Aegos in the Thracian Chersonesus. (Plin. Nat. 4.18.) It is undoubtedly the same place as that called Cressa (Κρήσσα) by Scylax (p. 28). Mannert (7. p. 191) believes that it was the same place as Aegos, and identifies it with the modem Galata.
