6& THE HISTORY Fook fc • in aH the fouth of Middlefex^ places the Trinoantes in Eflbx. only, more eafterly than the Iceni and along the aeftuary of the Thames. But as the- Trinoantes once certainly redded in Mid- dlefex (fee Richard p. 23), Ptolemy's account of the Cantii and the Trinoantes muft certainly be taken, from record's of two different dates, and muft therefore be referred to two differ- ent periods. See b. I. ch. xii.. f. 2. — 2 * Richard Iter 3. — * Ri- chard Iter 4. And in Richard Iter 18. is a ftationr ad Fines, meaning undoubtedly Gxavefborough upon the Don,, the limits. of Maxima and Flavia, and the borders of Yorkfhire and Der- byfhire.— ** See b.

Iu this province Richard's map is inaccurate' in one particular, and Dr. Stukeley's in many. In the former, the Gadeni are carried greatly too far to the north, quite up to the Frith of Forth;, and the Damnii are placed to the north of the Novantes and Selgovae only,, not to the north of the Gadeni as well as them.. In the latter, the Ot- tadini/ who fhould be extended along the fea from Severus's wall to the Frith of Forth, are placed to the north of the* Tweed, and the, Gadeni who lived to the weft are placed dl- re&ly to the fouth of them, and betwixt them and the wall- Coria the capital of the Gadeni is given to the Ottadini. And Bremenium the metropolis ef the Ottadini is configned to the Gadeni. The Selgavae, who lived entirely to the eaft of the Dee, are even carried to the weft of that river.. And the Damnii are placed to the north of the Novantes. only,, being thruft up into Cunningham an<T Renfrew. — ?* Ptolemy (corre&ed^ places the Novantae on the weft, the Selgovae to the eaft of them, the Damnii to the north and weft of them, the Gadeni to the eaft «f the Selgovae, and the Ottadini to the eaft of the. whole ; af- figning
