The Deciates (Δεκιῆται) were a Ligurian tribe in the first few centuries BC. They lived in the Antibes area of what is now France, west of the river Var (Smith, (entry on Deciátes ); Cosson, pp. 20–23). The border with the Ligurian Oxybii (Ὀξύβιοι) being to the west of Antipolis and east of Forum Julii (Smith, ( entry on Oxybii )). The Deciates had a town in the area, ''oppidum Deciatum'' but this was not Antibes itself (Pliny the Elder, Chorographia, 2.69): :''In litoribus aliquot sunt cum aliquis nominibus loca: ceterum rarae urbes quia rari portus, et omnis plaga austro atque africo exposita est. Nicaea tangit Alpes, tangit oppidum Deciatum, tangit Antipolis.'' ==References== *Cosson, Pierre (1995) ''Civitas Antipolitana: Histoire du Municipe Romain d'Antipolis''.Nice, Serre Editeur.
