Caledonia

Caledonia

Caledonia is the ancient Latin name of Scotland. It designated the part of Britain to the north of the wall of Hadrian, and after that of Antoninus. It was never conquered by the Romans, nor even the military expedition of Cneo Julio Agrícola managed to subdue the country. Consequently, he was never part of the Roman Empire. According to Tacitus, a Roman fleet circumnavigated it, verifying thus the insular character of Britania. At present it designates a northern region of the United Kingdom, in Scotland, to the north of the isthmus between the estuaries of the river Clyde and the Forth. The Picts or Caledones, who inhabited this country until the 7th century AD. Were, in all likelihood, a pre-Indo-European aboriginal people. As a result of being conquered by the Scots, the name became in Scotia, that gave to the Spanish the topónimo Scotland. Caledonia es el antiguo nombre latino de Escocia. Designaba la parte de Britania al norte del muro de Adriano, y después del de Antonino. Nunca fue conquistada por los romanos, ni siquiera la expedición militar de Cneo Julio Agrícola consiguió someter el país. Por consiguiente, nunca formó parte del Imperio romano. Según Tácito, una flota romana la circunnavegó, verificando así el carácter insular de Britania. En la actualidad designa a una comarca septentrional del Reino Unido, en Escocia, al norte del istmo comprendido entre los estuarios del río Clyde y del Forth. Los pictos o caledones, que habitaron este país hasta el siglo VII d. C. eran, con toda probabilidad, un pueblo aborigen preindoeuropeo. A raíz de ser conquistada por los escotos, el nombre devino en Scotia, que dio al español el topónimo Escocia.
