The Coriobedenses were a small Gallic tribe dwelling in the present-day Gard department during the Roman period.
Name
They are attested as Coriobedenses on an inscription found in Collias (Gard).
The first element derives from the Gaulish stem corio- ('army, troop'), itself from Proto-Indo-European *kóryos ('army, people under arms').
Geography The Coriobedenses lived near modern Collias, as attested by their mention on the Collias inscription.
Religion They appear on an inscription dedicated to Jupiter alongside the Budenicenses. +InscriptionTranslationReferenceIovi Coriobedens[es] et Budenicenses [--]To Jupiter, the communities of the Coriobedenses and the BudenicensesCIL XII 2972 References
