Étymologie : A. Isurium Brigantium. cf Rivet & Smith, p 379 et suiv. - Ptolémée, II,3,10 : Isourion ( = ISURIUM), a polis of the Brigantes. - Itinéraire d'Antonin, 4653 (Iter I) : ISURIUM - Itinéraire d'Antonin, 4683 (Iter II) : ISURIAM - Itinéraire d'Antonin, 4761 (Iter V) : ISUBRIGANTUM - Ravenna, 10838 : COGUVEUSURON As explained under Coccuveda, Ravenna's entry is a conflation. The second part of it, Usuron, is for *Isuron, that is *Isur(i)um ; and although Coguveusuron stands in the Cosmographer's river-list and the first part of the conflation does indeed represent a river, it seems best to take Usuron as a version of the town-name Isurium and not that of its river (see below), because one would expect river-names to be cited — if masculine — either with nominative -us or oblique -o, but not neuter-seeming -um (though there are three instances of this in the river-list). Since the Cosmographer was reading from a map, a conflation of river + town is just as likely to have occurred as a conflation of river + river. DERIVATION. "Jackson, in Britannia, I (1970), 75, gives the name as British *Isurion, perhaps derived from British *Isura, now the river Ure, 'though this derivation of Ure has been doubted'. One may compare Isara > Isar, a tributary of the Danube in Bavaria, and > Isère (Isère, France), rivers with a different suffix from the british name; the same suffix is shown in the female name Isuria in CIL xiii, 5778 (Langres). The meaning of the base is unknown; for discussion, see LHEB 473, 523-24, and W. Nicolaisen in BZN, viii (1957), 239-40"IDENTIFICATION. The roman city of Aldborugh, Boroughbridge, Yorkshire (SE 4066), capital of the Brigantes. ++++++++++++++++ |
