Английская Википедия:Coriondi
Шаблон:Short description The Coriondi (Κοριονδοί) were a people of early Ireland, referred to in Ptolemy's 2nd century Geography as living in southern Leinster.[1]
Name
The stem *corio- ('army' or 'troop of warriors'), which is derived from Proto-Indo-European *kóryos ('army, people under arms'), also occurs in Gaulish and Brittonic personal and tribal names such as Coriosolites, Petrucorii, and Corionototae.[2]
Legacy
The Benntraige, a people dwelling in southern Ireland in pre-Christian times, might be a remnant of the tribe.[3] Eoin MacNeill identified another later Irish group, the Coraind, in the Boyne valley, as possibly the same people.[4]
Other possibly related names include the Corcu Cuirnd,[4] Cuirennrige and Dál Cuirind in early medieval Ireland, and in Britain, the Corionototae, known from an inscription in Hexham, Northumberland, and Corinion, the Brittonic name for Cirencester, Gloucestershire.[1]
