Iemerii

The Iemerii (Gaulish: *Iemerioi, 'the twins') were a Celto-Ligurian tribe dwelling in the Val Chisone (Cottian Alps) during the Iron Age.

Name
They are mentioned as Iemeriorum on an inscription.

The ethnic name Iemerii is a Latinized form of *Iemerioi, which can be compared with the Gaulish noun iemurioi, meaning 'twins'.

Geography
The Iemerii lived in the Val Chisone, in the Cottian Alps. Their territory was located north of the Maielli, west of the Taurini.

History
They appear on the Arch of Susa, erected by Cottius in 9–8 BC.
