The Dobunni were one of the Celtic tribes living in the British Islands prior to the Roman invasion of Britain. The tribe lived in part of West and South West England, including the former Avon, north Somerset and Gloucestershire. Their capital acquired the Roman name of Corinium Dobunnorum, known today as Cirencester.
The Dobunni were a large group of farmers and craftsmen, living in small villages concentrated in fertile valleys. They were one of the few tribes known to issue coins before Roman arrival. Unlike the Silures, their neighbours, they were not a warlike people and submitted to the Romans even before they reached their lands. Afterwards they adopted the Roman lifestyle.
Numismatic evidence suggests that the Dobunni kings subdivided their land between a north and south zone, sometimes becoming unified in a single ruler.
Principal towns and settlements in Dobunni territory
Alcester - (Warwickshire) - Small walled town.
Ariconium - (Weston-under-Penyard, Hereford & Worcester) - A major settlement and administrative centre situated near the Forest of Dean.
Asthall (Oxfordshire) - Minor settlement on Akeman Street, between Corinium and Alchester.
Atrebatum - (Silchester, Hampshire) near the border with the Atrebates.
Bagendon - (Gloucestershire) - Notable oppidum-style pre-Roman settlement near Corinium. Hereford (Hereford & Worcester) - Possible Roman settlement or posting station.
Blackwardine - (Hereford & Worcester) - Minor settlement near border with the Cornovii in the north of the canton.
Bourton on the Water - (Gloucestershire) - Major settlement on Fosse Way NE of Corinium.
Chesterton-on-Fosse - (Warwickshire) - A small walled town near the border with the Coritani in the NE of the canton.
Corinium Dobunnorum - (Cirencester, Gloucester) - Established by the Romans at the centre of a network of local roads. At it's height the town covered more than 230 acres, the fourth largest town in Roman Britain.
Cricklade - (Wiltshire) - Minor settlement on Ermin Way SE of Corinium.
Dorn - (Gloucestershire) - Romano-British town on Fosse Way NE of Corinium. Lower Lea (nr. Swalcliffe, Oxfordshire) - minor settlement near borders with the Catuvellauni.
Durocornovium - (Wanborough, Wiltshire) - Major settlement on Ermin Way between Corinium and Calleva
Glevum - (Gloucester, Gloucestershire) - The site of at least two large Roman fortresses, a Roman colonia was established here in AD97.
Magnis (Kenchester, Hereford & Worcester) - Small town where a milestone of emperor Numerian was found, suggesting that the Civitas Dobunnorum held sway also on the west bank of the Severn. Separated from the civitas capital Corinium by the territorium of the Roman colony at Glevum, it is possible that Kenchester was the centre of an administrative pagus.
Nettleton Shrub - (Wiltshire) - Rural temple on the Fosse Way between Corinium and Aquae Sulis (Bath), marking the border between the Dobunni and the Belgae.
Salinae - (Droitwich Spa, Hereford & Worcester) - Major town whose important salt industries were worth guarding by the establishment of an auxiliary fort.
Sutton Walls - (Hereford & Worcester) - Iron Age hill fort continued to be occupied by a small community into Roman times.
Stretton Grandison - (Hereford & Worcester) - Minor settlement and auxiliary fort.
Tiddington - (Warwickshire) - Minor industrial settlement.
Vertis - (Worcester, Hereford & Worcester) - Town and potteries on the east bank of the Severn, at an important strategic crossing.
White Walls - (Easton Grey, Wiltshire) - Minor settlement on the Fosse Way SW of Corinium.
Wilcote - (Oxfordshire) - Cluster of villas and possible settlement on Akeman Street, near the border with the Catuvellauni.
Some of the Dobunni kings and queens
Anted-- Leader of the Dobunnic territories during the first decade of the first century AD. He seemed to have brought together the northern and southern factions of the tribe under a leadership for the first time since the division of the tribe in the latter half of the first century BC. This division was antagonised by their respective successors Catti-- and Comux--. Anted-- appears to have been succeeded by Eisu--, possibly his own son, 30AD.
Bodvoc It is probable that he ruled over the northern part of the Dobunni tribe. His brother, Corio appeared to have ruled over the southern part of the tribe,. Whether the division of the Dobunnic kingdom was agree by decree or war, is not known. The is evidence shows that Corio ruled over the entire Dobunnic kingdom for a while before Bodvoc took over in the north. It is possible that Bodvoc was succeeded by Catti-- in the north, while Corio was replaced by Comux-- in the southern territories.
Catti-- Possibly inherited the northern Dobunnic lands from Bodvoc around 1BC - 1AD.
Comux-- Possibly succeeded Corio as the king of the southern Dobunni around 1BC - 1AD.
Corio King of the southern Dobunni in Gloucester towards the end of the first century BC. . It is possible that the splitting of the Dobunnic territories occurred during his reign. Corio was succeeded at around 1BC - 1AD by Comux--.
Eisu-- Successor to the united Dobunnic throne following the re-merger of the tribe by Anted--. He assumed power around 30AD, and was probably chieftain during the Roman invasion, though whether he was leader of the faction of the Dobunni that surrendered to Plautius is unknown.
Inam-- Appeared to rule over the entire Dobunnic territory. Whether he ruled the kingdom prior to it being divided and shared by Bodvoc and Corio or after the tribe was reunited under the kingship of Anted--, will probaby never be known.
