	Carnutes
		The territory of the Carnutes had the reputation among Roman observers of being the political and religious center of the Gallic nations.
		In the 1st century BCE, the Carnutes minted coins, usually struck with dies, but sometimes cast in an alloy of high tin content called "potin." Their coinage turns up in hoards well outside their home territories, in some cases so widely distributed in the finds that the place of coinage is not secure.
		After they had been pacified, though not Romanized, under Augustus, the Carnutes, as one of the peoples of Gallia Lugdunensis, were raised to the rank of civitas soda or foederati, retaining their own self-governing institutions, continuing to mint coins, and only bound to render military service to the emperor.

		Les Carnutes qu'on trouve en Gaule au temps de César sont un peuple ancien - ou du moins leur nom l'est-il.
		Les Carnutes, au dire de César, auraient fourni un contingent de 12000 hommes - chiffre certainement très excessif, comme il est de règle lorsque César estime les effectifs gaulois - qui «partirent pour Alésia, joyeux et pleins de confiance ».
		Les Carnutes, pour d'obscures raisons, ont maille à partir avec leurs voisins bituriges qui réclament justice aupès de César à Bibracte.

		In 52 BC, following the massacre of Roman citizens living in Cenabum (Orléans) by the Carnutes, the Arvernian Vercingetorix won several of the Gaulish tribes to his revolutionary cause and marched in person to the lands of the Biturige.
		However, Caesar mounted a surprise campaign at the head of the 13th legion and reinforced by the 11th legion which had been stationed nearby, and forced the Biturige into suing for peace.
		Benefitting from the clemency of Caesar, the Biturige submitted to Roman domination and, when the Carnutes attacked from the north, were quick to call on the Roman army for assistance.

		The Aedui had controlled substantially more of Gaul at one time, but attacks from the Belgae (beaten back by the Carnutes), and some poor performance against the Arverni, and losses to the Germans, had led to a lack of confidence in the Aedui.
		Cernunnos, the god of the Carnutes, and subsequently the druids, was a powerful deity in northern Gaul, and the Arverni feared their populace would be swayed by worship of Cernunnos; eliminating his worship in their territories guaranteed indepedence from the authority of the northern druids.
