Atesui
The Atesui were a Gallic tribe living in Gallia Lugdunensis during the Roman period. They are generally identified with the Esuvii.
Name
They are mentioned as Atesui by Pliny (1st c. AD).[1] Scholars have proposed to emend the name as at esui, and to identify them with the Esuvii of Normandy.[2][3][4] An identification with the Ambarri (in eastern France) is now rejected by recent scholarship.[5]
As with the Esuvii, the ethnic name Atesui has been compared with the theonym Esus.[2]
Geography
Little is known about this tribe beyond Pliny's location in Gallia Lugdunensis. In this passage, Pliny enumerates the peoples of this province without an apparent logical order, making their geographical location difficult to determine.[3]
