Matilo ou Matilone, - aujourd'hui Leyde-Roomburg - est un castellum d'une cohorte et du vicus des Limes du Vieux Rhin en Germanie inférieure. Jusque 1575, le nom de Lugdunum était utilisé erronément pour désigner Leyde dont le nom médiéval - Leithon - est simplement dérivé d'une petite rivière - la Leede.
