It is known primarily from the great Battle of Naulochus sea fight in which Sextus Pompeius was defeated by Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa , 36 BC 36 BCE , and which was fought between Mylae and Naulochus. Suetonius Suet. Aug. 16 Appian, B.C. v. 116 22. Pompeius himself during the battle had been encamped with his land forces at Naulochus Appian l. c. 121 , and after his victory, Octavian , in his turn, took up his station there, while Agrippa and Lepidus advanced to attack Messana modern Messina . Id. 122. It is clear from its name that Naulochus was a place where there was a good roadstead or anchorage for shipping. Some have doubted its existence as a populated place, but Silius Italicus includes it in his list of Sicilian cities. Sil. Ital. xiv. 264. From the description in Appian it is clear that it was situated between Mylae and Cape Rasoculmo the Phalacrian Promontory of Ptolemy , and probably not very far from the latter point but there is nothing to fix its site more definitely.
