Aquitani
The Aquitani were the ancient peoples of south-western Gaul between the Garonne, the Pyrenees and the Atlantic. Unlike the Celtic Gauls, they spoke a language related to early Basque, known from personal and divine names in Latin inscriptions. Julius Caesar's legate Publius Crassus conquered them in 56 BCE, and their land became part of the Roman province of Aquitania.
