I the lower part of the Danube (the upper part, Danubius).
I Prop.
A In gen.: Ponticum simul et Hadriaticum mare et Histrum amnem et Alpes conspici posse, Liv. 40, 21: turbidus et torquens flaventes Hister arenas, Verg. G. 3, 350: stat vetus urbs, ripae vicina binominis Histri, Ov. P. 1, 8, 11.—
B Esp.: Histro fallacior, an epithet applied by Tertullian to Marcion; because the river, on account of its strong eddies and many mouths, was dangerous to the navigator, Tert. adv. Marc. 1, 1.—
II Meton., one who dwells on the Danube: collo triumphati proculcat Honorius Histri, Claud. VI. Cons. Honor. 648: aut tibi captivo famulus mittetur ab Histro, Mart. 7, 79, 11.
