of these nations. We find Arc©Mga,,S^gD'brigaj' and Augus-

north-western parts of the Peninsula.

proportion to the whole number of local names on this island,
which contained by no means sp many towns or cities, in
reference to its extent, as Gaul.
Besides the preceding words, which are of most frequent
occurrence in the topographical nomenclatures of the countries
compared, there are others which- though not so numerous may
be- looked uponf equally' ’Characteristic of s*0eitic
habitation, and among them we* find, the same terms appropriated
b y nkfe'is of allf’ iffererit divisions of the Celtic?
family.
