Diablintes
The Diablintes or Aulerci Diablites (also ''Diablintres'' or ''Diablindes'') were a Gallic tribe dwelling in the north of the modern Mayenne department during the Iron Age and the Roman period. They were part of the Aulerci. Name They are mentioned as ''Diablintes'' (var. ''Diablintres'', ''Diablindes'') by Caesar (mid-1st c. BC), ''Diablinti'' by Pliny (1st c. AD), ''Aúlírkioi hoi'' ''Diablítai'' or ''Diaultai'' (Αύλίρκιοι οἱ Διαβλίται/Διαυλται) by Ptolemy (2nd c. AD), and as ''Diablentas'' by Orosius (early 5th c. AD). The meaning of the name is unclear. Pierre-Yves Lambert has proposed a connection with the Proto-Celtic root ''*dwēblo-'' ('double'; cf. Old Irish ''díabul''), attached to an ''-e-nt-'' participial suffix, or perhaps to ''*anto-''/''*ento-'' ('face'; cf. Old Irish ''étan''; also Bret. ''Daou-dal'' 'two-faced').

Jublains Archeological Site
The Jublains archeological site is a cluster of ruins, mostly dating back to Ancient Rome, in the current French of Jublains in the of Mayenne in the Pays de la Loire. Roman imperial authorities built a city named Jublains, Noviodunum on the site of a temple of the Celts, Celtic Diablintes, which became the capital of this people in the Augustus, Augustan administrative reorganization. Settled in the second half of the 1st century, its public buildings testify to the spread of the Roman way of life: theatre, Forum (Roman), forum and Thermae, baths, in addition to the Celtic temple, which was rebuilt in stone. The difficulties the city experienced beginning in the 3rd century can be read in the fortifications built in that period, which are still the most impressive features of the site. In late antiquity the settlement lost its status as a capital when the Diablintes were absorbed into the Aulerci Cenomani, Cenomani culture. Jublains is mostly known for its "Roman camp", regi ...

Jublains
Jublains () is a commune in the Mayenne department in north-western France. History Jublains, formerly spelled Jubleins, is the site of ancient Noeodunum (also spelled Noiodunum or Noviodunum), the capital of the ancient Gallic tribe of the Diablintes, later occupied and settled by Romans and called Civitas Diablintum. Noeodunum ( in Greek language sources), was the chief city of the Diablintes, or of the Aulircii Diaulitae, as the name appears in the Greek texts of Ptolemy (ii. 8. § 7). There is no doubt that the old Gallic name of the town was exchanged for that of the people, Diablintes - w''Civitas Diablintum''. In a medieval document, referred to by D'Anville, the town's name is written Jublent, and thence comes the corrupted name Jublains. Jublains is a small place not far from Mayenne, where Roman remains have also been discovered. A name "Nudionnum" occurs in the Theodosian Table between Araegenus (modern Vieux in Calvados) and Subdinnum (modern Le Mans), and ...

Mayenne, Mayenne
Mayenne (, ) is a commune in the Mayenne department, northwestern France. It is a subprefecture of the department. It is situated on the river Mayenne. History In medieval times, the town was the seat of the Lords of Mayenne. The town originated when Juhel II of Mayenne (lord of Mayenne, Gorron and Ambrières (1110–1161)) built a monastery near the gate of the pre-existing castle, which led to the formation of the settlement. Mayenne was besieged twice during the French Wars of Religion, in 1574 and 1590, and suffered substantial damage. It was rebuilt and re-embellished in the following century thanks to the help of Cardinal Mazarin. It however suffered from plague in 1707. On 9 June 1944, during World War II, it was bombed by the RAF, which caused heavy damage and numerous casualties.

Curiosolitae
The Coriosolites or Curiosolitae were a Gallic people dwelling on the northern coast of present-day Brittany during the Iron Age and the Roman period. Name They are mentioned as ''Coriosolitas'' (var. ''coriosolitos'', ''curiosolitas'', ''curiosolitas'') and ''Coriosolites'' (var.

The etymology of the ethnonym ''Coriosolites'' remains uncertain. The first element is certainly the Gaulish root ''corio-'' ('army, troop'), derived from Proto-Indo-European *'' kóryos'' ('army, people under arms'). However, the meaning of the second element is unclear. Pierre-Yves Lambert has proposed to interpret ''corio-solit-es'' as 'those who purchase (or sell) mercenaries', by positing a Gaulish stem ''solitu-'' ('purchase/salary of mercenaries'; cf. Gaul.
