Belgae (sh)




Inhabitants of Gaul north of the Sequana (Seine) and Matrona (Marne) rivers.

The term was apparently first applied by Julius Caesar, whose Gallic victories (54-51 BC) sent many Belgae into Britain, where they formed kingdoms, the most important of which were at Camulodunum (Colchester), Verulamium (St. Albans), and Calleva Atrebatum (Silchester).
