Bituriges Vivisci
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
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.
