Corionototae
The Corionototae were a group of Ancient Britons apparently inhabiting what is now Northern England about whom very little is known. They were recorded in one Roman votary inscription from Corbridge, of uncertain date, which commemorated the victory of a prefect of cavalry, Quintus Calpurnius Concessinius, over them.
Scholars tend to categorise them as a sub-group of the Brigantes in the absence of any information.
Name
The name Coriono-totae means 'people of the chief, people of chiefs'. It is a compound formed with the root coriono-, attached to the word totae, itself derived from PIE *teutéh₁-.This might suggest rather a military or political formation of several clans opposed to Rome. Scholar T.M. Charles-Edwards has proposed a tribal name based on an hypothetical deity *Corionos instead. On the basis of the similarity of the names, writers such as Charles-Edwards, Waldman and Mason have suggested a link with the Irish ethnonym Coriondi, while other earlier writers, erroneously linking the name to the Gaelic Cruthin, thought it could refer to the Picts.
