Insubres

The peoples of Cisalpine Gaul, 391-192 BC.

The Insubres or Insubri were an ancient Celtic[1] population settled in Insubria, in what is now the Italian region of Lombardy. They were the founders of Mediolanum (Milan). Though completely Gaulish at the time of Roman conquest, they were the result of the fusion of pre-existing Ligurian and Celtic population (Golasecca culture) with Gaulish tribes.
