The battle took place in the flat country of Pavia county on the right bank of the Ticino River, not far north from its confluence (from the north) with the Po River.  The battle is named from the river, not the nearby contemporaneous settlement of Ticinum (today's Pavia).  Although the precise location is not known, it is generally accepted that a settlement known today as Vigevano is mentioned in Livy's text and that Scipio's camp was to the south at Gambolo, whose coordinates are given on the map.  The conflict would have been west of there.  It was the first battle of the war against the Romans that was fought on Italian soil and the first battle of the war to employ legion-sized forces.  Its loss by the Romans, and the temporary disablement of Scipio's command, set the stage for the Roman disaster at the Battle of Trebbia in December.
