| Additional information |
The Atrebates occupied territory centered on modern Berkshire and Hampshire, with the Regini — likely a sub-group or client people — clustered around what is now Chichester. The "Chichester Cock" designation is a modern collector convention tied to findspot distribution, not ancient nomenclature. These bronzes circulated as small-denomination coinage during a period when the southern British tribes were increasingly embedded in cross-channel trade networks with Gaulish Belgic neighbors, a relationship that predates Caesar's invasions and survived them.
ABC 737 places this type firmly within the Atrebatic bronze sequence. Hoards from the Chichester region account for a disproportionate share of known examples.
