Olcades
The Olcades were an ancient stock-raising pre-Roman people from Hispania, who lived to the west of the Turboletae in the southeastern fringe of the Iberian system mountains. Origins Related to both the Celtiberians and Carpetani, the Olcades appear to have been a mix of indigenous Iberians under the rule of an aristocracy of Gallic origin. It is believed that the latter sprang from the Volcae Tectosages of southern Gaul, who arrived in Iberia in the wake of the Celtic migrations of the 4th Century BC. Location From the 4th century BC, they occupied most of the modern province of Cuenca, along with the southern tip of Guadalajara and the western fringe of Valencia, where their capital ''Cartala'' ( Los Villares, near Caudete de las Fuentes; Iberian-type mint: ''Kelin'') – also designated ''Althea'' or ''Althia'', and ''Altaia'' by some Greek authors – was sited. Other Olcades' towns were ''Caesada'' ( Hita – Guadalajara; Iberian-type mint: ''Kaiseza''?), ''Ercavica ...

Lusones
The Lusones ( Greek: ''Lousones'') were an ancient Celtiberian (Pre- Roman) people of the Iberian Peninsula (the Roman Hispania), who lived in the high Tajuña River valley, northeast of Guadalajara. They were eliminated by the Romans as a significant threat in the end of the 2nd century BC. Origins They spoke a variety of the Celtiberian language and were a subdivision of the Celtiberians. There is an overwhelming amount of evidence that the ancestors of the Celtiberian groups were installed in the Meseta area of the Iberian Peninsula from at least 1000 BC and probably much earlier. A mixed people, they included elements of early Italic ( Osco-Latin) and Gallic affiliation, the latter possibly related to the namesake Helvetic Lusones from present-day Switzerland or from Pannonia, who migrated to the Iberian Peninsula around the 4th Century BC. Some scholars also reasoned that they might bear a connection with the Lusitani, with the latter people being actually an off-s ...
