Ambibarii

The Ambibarii were an ancient Gallic tribe living in Armorica during the Iron Age.
Name
They are attested as Ambibarii by Caesar (mid-1st c. BC).[1][2]
Most linguists analyse the name Ambibarii as based on the Gaulish stem bar(i)o ('anger, fury, passion').[3][4][5] Xavier Delamarre proposes to translate the name as 'the Furious' or 'the Passionate'.[3]
Venceslas Kruta has suggested to identify them to the Ambiliati,[2] although Julie Rémy notes there is no real evidence to support this proposal, apart from the fact that in both cases the names are associated with Armorican peoples.[6]
Geography
The Ambibarii have been located in the Manche department.[7]
History
During the Gallic Wars (58–50 BC), the Ambibarii are mentioned among the seven Armorican peoples bordering the Ocean who together supplied a contingent of twenty thousand men to the Gallic coalition in 52 BC.[2]
