  Kingdom of Kent - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The name "Kent" predates the Jutish invaders, and relates to the much earlier Celtic Cantiaci tribe whose homeland it was.
Caesar referred to Cingetorix, Carvilius, Taximagulus and Segovax as kings of the four regions of Kent.
Later kings are known from their coins, including Dubnovellaunus, Vosenos, Eppillus, and Amminus.

A great amount of cattle was found there, and many of the enemy were taken and slain in their flight.
While these things are going forward in those places, Cassivellaunus sends messengers into Kent, which, we have observed above, is on the sea, over which districts four several kings reigned, Cingetorix, Carvilius, Taximagulus and Segonax, and commands them to collect all their forces, and unexpectedly assail and storm the naval camp.
When they had come to the camp, our men, after making a sally, slaying many of their men, and also capturing a distinguished leader named Lugotorix, brought back their own men in safety.

Cassibelan for all these losses yet deserts not himself; nor was yet his authority so much impaired, but that in Kent, though in a manner possessed by the enemy, his messengers and commands find obedience enough to raise all the people.

Cassibelan after so many defeats, moved especially by revolt of the cities from him, their inconstancy and falsehood one to another, uses mediation by Comius of Arras to send embassadors about treaty of yielding.

Inde cum equitatu Romano acriter praelio in itinere conflixerunt, ita tamen ut Romani omnibus partibus superiores fuerint, ac intermisso spatio rursus in Romanos impetum fecerunt, per medios audacissime perruperunt, interfectoque Laberio Duro militum tribuno incolumes se receperunt, posteroque die ad pabulatores advolarunt andc., quae superius e Caesare perstrinxi.
Quo tempore Cantio praefuerunt Cyngetorix, Carvilius, Taximagulus, et Segonax, quos ille, ut reges devicisse videatur, reges vocat, cum tamen reguli fuerint vel melioris notae nobiles.
