NENNIUS’ HISTORY OF BRITAIN.

NENNIUS’ HISTORY OF BRITAIN. IRELAND.—CHAP. VIII.

AND afterwards they gradually came from different parts of Spain, and held most of the country. Last of all came Clamhoctor and dwelt there, and whose descendants remain to this day. In Britain also, Tistoreth, the son of Istorinus, and his adherents, held Dalmeta, but Builc, the island Eubonia, and other places ; the sons of Liethan obtained the country of the Dimetæ and the provinces, that is to say, Guiher, and Cetgueli, which they held until they were expelled from every part of Britain by Cuneda and his sons.

EX NENNIO.—CAP. II.

Et postea venerunt paulatim a partibus Hespaniæ et tenuerunt regiones plurimas. Novissime venit Clamhoctor, et ibi habitavit cum omni genere suo usque hodie in Brittanniam Istoreth, Istorini fillius, tenuit Dalrieta cum suis ; Builc autem cum suis tenuit Euboniam Insularn et alias circiter ; filii autem Liethan obtinuerunt in regione Demetorum et in aliis regionibus id est, Guir et Cetgueli, donec expulsi sunt a Cuneda et a fihiis ejus ab omnibus Britannicis regionibus.
