Venicones

The Venicones were a people of ancient Britain, known only from a single mention of them by the geographer Ptolemy c. 150 AD. He recorded that their town was 'Orrea'.〔 〕 This has been identified as the Roman fort of Horrea Classis, located by Rivet and Smith as Monifieth, six miles east of Dundee.〔A.L.F. Rivet and C. Smith, ''The Place-Names of Roman Britain'' (1979), pp. 372-3,491.〕 Therefore, they are presumed to have lived between the Tay and the Mounth, south of Aberdeen. The tribal name probably means "hunting hounds".〔(Andrew Breeze, Three Celtic names: Venicones, Tuesis and Soutra, ''Scottish Language'' (2006) )〕 A slightly differing etymology, "kindred hounds", identifies the name with ''Maen Gwyngwn'', a region mentioned in the ''Gododdin''.〔J. T. Koch, The Stone of the ''Wenicones'', in: ''Bulletin of the Board of Celtic Studies'' 29, 1982, p. 87ff.〕
