NIGER-PULLUS, Nigropullum, or Nigropullo, in North Gallia, is placed by the Theodosian Table on a road from Lugdunumn Batavorum ( Leiden) to Noviomagus ( Nymeguen). The distance is marked 11 from Albiniana ( Alfen), ascending the Rhine. Ukert (Gallien, p. 533) quotes a Dutch author, who says that there is a village near Woerdenstill called Zwarte Kuikenbuurt.
