Nicomedia-Eribvlo: Although a distance figure, XII, exists for this connection, probably added by a user rather than the chart-maker, this oblique connection goes against the parallel-reticulate ductus of the chart.
Miller and Talbert (TPPlace2110) urge insertion of a connecting line around the head of the Sinus Nicomedus, across the break between the Bithynia sheet and the Asia Proconsularis sheet. This is not essential to the overall diagrammatic structure, but helps readers compare with TP with other sources such as the Bordeaux Itinerary.
