EUGA'NEI, a people of Northern Ilalx, who pUy bat an unimportant pert in buitoncal timea, but appear at an earlier period to hare been more powerful and widel}' apnad.

(Lucan. vii. 192; Mar- tial, It. 35. 4.) The latter author in another passage giTes the naOM of Eugannn to the town of AUste at the foot of the aame hills, and Kdonioa Apoliiaaris applies the epithet of " Enganeoe chartae" to the writings of Lirj.
