| | Atrebates |
 | | After the Claudian invasion of Britain in 43CE the Atrebates were ruled as a client-kingdom of Rome under Cogidubnus (Tiberius Claudius Cogidubnus). | | | There is some speculation that Cogidubnus may even have been raised in Rome. | | | The known and speculative kings of the Atrebates are as follows: |

| | After Roman conquest, part of the Atrebates' lands were organized into the pro-Roman kingdom of the Regnenses under Tiberius Claudius Cogidubnus, possibly Verica's son. | | | However the fact that, when Caesar was unable to bring his cavalry over to Britain during his first expedition there, Commius was able to provide a small group of horsemen from his people, suggests that he already had kin in Britain at this time. | | | After Vercingetorix's defeat at the Siege of Alesia, Commius fled to Britain with his followers, and by about 30 BC had established himself as king of the British Atrebates, a kingdom he may have founded. |

| | The Atrebates had long links of trade with France and it is likely that people from the Atrebates were related by marriage to people from French tribes. | | | A French leader from the French Atrebates, Commius, fled to Britain during Julius Caesar's conquests of Gaul. | | | From about 15 BC, the Atrebates seem to have established friendly relations with Rome, and it was an appeal for help from the last Atrebatic king, Verica, which provided Claudius with the pretext for the invasion on Britain in AD 43. |

| | The Atrebates were led by Tincomarus in the south and Eppillus in the north, both of whom were recognised by the Romans as a client kings. | | | It appears that the aristocracy of Atrebates started to model themselves on the Romans they had seen on the Continent; their rulers Latinised their Gallic names, adopted the Roman grid plan for their town, drank imported wine, and used Roman coinage - a long time before the Roman invasion of Britain. | | | From 50 BC onwards, we know that the local tribes were the Atrebates (a word apparently meaning 'settlers' - almost certainly from northern Gaul where there was a similarly-named tribe). |
