Dicalydones The Dicalydones were mentioned by the 4th century writer Ammianus Marcellinus as one of the two branches of the ''Picti'', the Picts, the inhabitants of modern-day Scotland (the other being the ''Verturiones''). The name bears a striking resemblance to the other historical nomenclature donated to the Picts by classical historians, ''Caledonii''. Some scholars theorize that the two groups (''Dicalydones'' and ''Caledonii'') are one and the same, and that the other major Pictish tribes, related by Ptolemy as the ''Vacomagi'', ''Venicones'', and ''Taezali'', eventually went on to form the ''Maeatae'' mentioned by Cassius Dio. Other archaic accounts, which mention the ''Caledonii'' and ''Maeatae'' as the two major Pictish tribes, would seem to corroborate this hypothesis. ==References==
