Cornouaille
Cornouaille (; , ) is a historical region on the west coast of Brittany in West France. The name is cognate with Cornwall in neighbouring Great Britain. This can be explained by the settlement of Cornouaille by migrant princes from Cornwall who created an independent principality founded by Rivelen Mor Marthou, and the founding of the Bishopric of Cornouaille by ancient saints from Cornwall. Celtic Britons and the settlers in Brittany spoke a common language, which later evolved into Breton, Welsh and Cornish. Etymology The toponym Cornouaille was established in the early Middle Ages in the southwest of the Breton peninsula. Prior to this, following the withdrawal of Rome from Britain, other British migrants from what is now modern Devon had established the region of ''Domnonea'' (in Breton) or '' Domnonée'' (in French) in the north of the peninsula, taken from the Latin '' Dumnonia''. The region was first mentioned in surviving records by a ''Cornouaille''-related na ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
