Vadicassii
The Vadicassii (Ancient Greek: ''Ou̓adikássioi'', Οὐαδικάσσιοι) were an ancient Gallic tribe of the Roman period, located near the Meldi (Meaux), on the frontier between Gallia Celtica and Gallia Belgica. Name The tribe is only mentioned once as ''Ou̓adikássioi'' (Οὐαδικάσσιοι) by Ptolemy in the 2nd century AD. They have sometimes been conflated with the Bodiocasses (located around modern Bayeux) and with the Veliocasses (around modern Rouen), although the geographical indications given by Ptolemy do not match. The modern region of Valois, attested as ''Pagus vadensis'' in 796 AD (later ''Pago vadense'' in 842, ''Pagus vadisus'' in 853), and the town of Vez, attested as ''Vadum'' ca. 866, are probably named after the tribe. Geography Ptolemy places the tribe near the Meldi (Meaux), on the borders of Gallia Belgica. North of the Meldi lay the Carolingian-era ''Pagus vadisus'' (with its capital ''Vadum'', now Vez), whose name closely resembl ...

Bodiocasses
The Bodiocasses or Baiocasses were an ancient Gallic tribe of the Roman period. They were a tribal division of the ''civitas'' of the Lexovii, in the Roman province of Gallia Lugdunensis. Name Attestations They are mentioned as ''Bodiocasses'' by Pliny (1st c. AD), as ''Baiocassi'' by Ausonius (4th c. AD), and as ''Baiocas'' in the ''Notitia Dignitatum'' (5th c. AD)., s.v. ''Bodiocasses''. In Pliny's ''Natural History'', various manuscripts refer to this tribe as the ''Vadiocasses'', ''Bodiocasses'', or ''Bodicasses'', likely due to a copyist’s mistake. The Vadicassii (Οὐαδικάσσιοι) cited by Ptolemy in the 2nd century AD are probably a separate tribe, since he places them near the Meldi (Meaux), in the direction of Belgica. Etymology The Gaulish ethnonym ''Bodiocasses'' derives from the Proto-Celtic stem *''bodyo-'' ('yellow, blond'; cf. Old Irish ''buide'' 'yellow'). The meaning of the second element ''-casses'', attested in other Gaulish ethnonyms such ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Their homeland was known as Gaul (''Gallia''). They spoke Gaulish, a continental Celtic language. The Gauls emerged around the 5th century BC as bearers of La Tène culture north and west of the Alps. By the 4th century BC, they were spread over much of what is now France, Belgium, Switzerland, Southern Germany, Austria, and the Czech Republic, by virtue of controlling the trade routes along the river systems of the Rhône, Seine, Rhine, and Danube. They reached the peak of their power in the 3rd century BC.

These latter Gauls eventually settled in Anatolia (contemporary Turkey), becoming known as Galatians. After the end of the Fi ...

Silvanectes
The Silvanectes (or Sulbanectes) were a small Belgic tribe dwelling around present-day Senlis (Oise) during the Roman period. Name Attestations They are mentioned as ''Ulmanectes'' by Pliny (1st c. AD), as ''Soubánektoi'' (Greek: Σουβάνεκτοι) by Ptolemy (2nd c. AD), and as ''Siluanectas'' in the ''Notitia Dignitatum'' (5th c. AD)., s.v. ''Silvanectes''. The Silvanectes are also attested under the name ''Sulbanectes'' in an inscription, and their capital was mentioned as ''civitas Sulbanectium'' in 48 AD. Etymology The etymology of the ethnonym remains unclear. It could be a Latinized form of Gaulish ''*Seluanecti'' (from ''seluā-'' 'possession, property' > 'herd'; cf. Old Irish ''selb'' 'property, possession', Welsh ''ar helw'' 'in possession of'), corrupted under the influence of Latin ''silva'' ('forest').

Suessiones
The Suessiones were a Belgic tribe, dwelling in the modern Aisne and Oise regions during the La Tène and Roman periods. During the Gallic Wars (58–50 BC), their oppidum Noviodunum ( Pommiers) was besieged and conquered by Caesar. Following their defeat by the Romans at the end of the campaign of 57 BC, they fell into dependence upon Rome and remained faithful to the Romans during the revolt of 51 BC. Name Attestations They are mentioned as ''Suessiones'' by Caesar (mid-1st c. BC) and Pliny (1st c. AD), as ''Souessíōnes'' (Σουεσσίωνες) and ''Ou̓essíōnas'' (Οὐεσσίωνας) by Strabo (early 1st c. AD), and as ''Ouéssones'' (Οὐέσσονες) by Ptolemy (2nd c. AD). Etymology The etymology of the Gaulish ethnonym ''Suessiones'' has been debated, but most scholars derive it from the word for 'six', (cf. Gaulish 'sixth', Irish , Welsh 'six'), after a Gallic custom of including numbers in tribal names (e.g. '' Vo-contii'', '' Vo-corii'', '' Tri- ...

Carolingian Empire
The Carolingian Empire (800–887) was a Franks, Frankish-dominated empire in Western and Central Europe during the Early Middle Ages. It was ruled by the Carolingian dynasty, which had ruled as List of Frankish kings, kings of the Franks since 751 and as kings of the Lombards in Italy from 774. In 800, Pope Leo III crowned the Frankish king Charlemagne as Roman emperor in return for political protection, disregarding the universalist claims of the weakened Byzantine Empire. The Carolingian Empire is sometimes considered the first phase in the history of the Holy Roman Empire. After a Carolingian civil war, civil war from 840 to 843 following the death of Emperor Louis the Pious, the empire was divided into autonomous kingdoms, with one king still recognised as emperor, but with little authority outside his own kingdom. The unity of the empire and the hereditary right of the Carolingians continued to be acknowledged. In 884, Charles the Fat reunited all the Carolingian kingdoms f ...
