A map of Gaul in the 1st century BC, showing the relative positions of the Celtic tribes.

The Bituriges Vivisci was one of the tribes of Gaul. The tribe's capital was at Burdigala, modern-day Bordeaux

Bituriges is often taken to mean Kings of the World^[1] but whether there was any link to the Bituriges Cubi of the Berry region is not known. According to Strabo^[2] their territory was surrounded by that of the Aquitanian people, but the Bituriges Vivisci were not themselves Aquitanian and took no part in their political affairs.
