They are mentioned as Brigianii by Pliny (1st c. AD),[1] Brigiani , Brigantionis and Bricianiorum on inscriptions.[2] [3]
Their name may be based on the Gaulish root brig - ('high, elevated'),[3] brīgo - ('might, strength').
Geography [ edit ]
The Gallitae lived in the region of Briançonnais [fr , in the center of the Cottian Kingdom . Their territory was located north of the Caturiges , west of the Quariates , east of the Tricorii , south of the Segovii .[6]
Their chief town was known as Brigantio (modern Briançon ), meaning 'eminence, high/elevated place' in Gaulish.
History [ edit ]
They are mentioned by Pliny the Elder as one of the Alpine tribes conquered by Rome in 16–15 BC, and whose name was engraved on the Tropaeum Alpium .[1]
