Additional information

Tasciovanus ruled the Catuvellauni from roughly the late first century BC, making him one of the most politically significant British rulers of the pre-Roman period — and one of the first British kings to place his name on coinage in abbreviated Latin letters, a deliberate adoption of Continental practice. The 'Trinovantian M' designation reflects numismatic debate about whether certain Tasciovanus issues were struck in Trinovantian territory, possibly during a period of expansion into lands centered around Camulodunum before Roman pressure complicated tribal boundaries.
