Atrebates
The Atrebates (singular ''Atrebas'') were a Belgic tribe of Gaul and Britain before the Roman conquests. However it is possible that the Atrebates were a family of rulers (dynasty), as there is no evidence for a major migration from Belgium to England.
== Name of the tribe ==
Cognate with Old Irish ''aittrebaid'' meaning 'inhabitant',〔MacBain, Alexander. (1982:§1) ''An Etymological Dictionary of the Gaelic Language'' Gairm Publications.〕〔(eDil - Letter A, Column 280 ) - Entry for ''aittrebaid'' in the''e-Dictionary of the Irish Language'' - Header image: Folio 154 r, MS. 23 P 12 (Book of Ballymote) - by permission of the Royal Irish Academy - Image courtesy of the Irish Script on Screen.〕 Atrebates comes from proto-Celtic ''
*ad-treb-a-t-es'', 'inhabitants'. The Celtic root is ''treb-'' 'building', 'home' (cf. Old Irish ''treb'' 'building', 'farm', Welsh ''tref'' 'town', Middle Breton ''treff'' 'city', toponyms in ''Tre-'', Provençal ''trevar'' 'to live in a house or in a village'),〔Xavier Delamarre, ''Dictionnaire de la langue gauloise'', éditions errance 2003. p. 300.〕 which has been linked 〔 to the root of
English ''thorpe'', ‘village’.〔 Edith Wightman suggested that their name may be intended to mean the people of the (inland) earth to contrast with that of the neighbouring coastal Morini, "people of the sea".〔Wightman, Edith Mary (1985), Gallia Belgica, University of California Press, page 29.〕
