His name is known only from his inscribed coins, the distribution of which seem to indicate that he was the ruler of the Trinovantes . He was the first king to produce inscribed coins north of the Thames, perhaps as early as 35 BC, although some estimates are as late as 15 BC. He seems to have moved the Trinovantian capital from Braughing in Hertfordshire to Camulodunum Colchester , Essex . For a brief period ca. 15 10 BC he seems to have been supplanted by Tasciovanus of the Catuvellauni , who issued coins from Camulodunum at that time. Addedomarus then appears to have regained power and reigned until 10 5 BC, when he was succeeded by Dubnovellaunus . Addedomarus appears in later, post Roman and medieval British Celtic genealogies and legends as Aedd Mawr Addedo the Great .

Dubnovellaunus or Dumnovellaunus was the name of at least one, and possibly several kings of south eastern Prehistoric Britain Britain in the late 1st century BC early 1st century AD, known from coin legends and from a mention in the Res Gestae Divi Augusti . Dubnovellaunus is the name of a king who, based on coin distribution, appears to have ruled over Kent east of the River Medway . He was the first king of the Cantiaci to issue inscribed coins some of his coins appear to date from as early as 40 30 BC. Towards the end of the 1st century BC he seems to have been succeeded by a king called Vodenos or Vosenios, although it is possible the two kings reigns were contemporary or overlapped. A king called Dubnovellaunus succeeded his father Addedomarus as king of the Trinovantes ca. 10 5 BC and ruled for several years before being supplanted by Cunobelinus of the Catuvellauni . In the Res Gestae Divi Augusti , a British king called Dumnovellaunus appears, alongside Tincomarus of the Atrebates , as a supplicant to Caesar Augustus Augustus around AD 7. Another Dumnovellaunus appears on coins of the Corieltauvi , dating ca. 45 AD. He appears to have been a subordinate king to Volisios , probably the overall king of the territory. Given the chronology it is possible, but not certain, that Dubnovellaunus of the Cantiaci is the same individual as Dubnovellaunus of the Trinovantes and the Trinovantian Dubnovellaunus is most likely to be the Dumnovellaunus who presented himself to Augustus.

They lived in the area now called Kent , in south eastern England. Their capital was Durovernum Cantiacorum , now Canterbury . They were bordered by the Regnenses to the west, and the Catuvellauni to the north. Julius Caesar landed in Cantium in 55 BC 55 and 54 BC , the first Ancient Rome Roman expeditions to Britain. He recounts in his De Bello Gallico v. 14 Ex his omnibus longe sunt humanissimi qui Cantium incolunt, quae regio est maritima omnis, neque multum a Gallica differunt consuetudine. Of all these British tribes , by far the most civilised are they who dwell in Kent, which is entirely a maritime region, and who differ but little from the Gaul Gauls in their customs . Rulers Pre Roman Iron Age Caesar mentions four kings, Segovax , Carvilius , Cingetorix Briton Cingetorix and Taximagulus , who held power in Cantium at the time of his second expedition in 54 BC . The British leader Cassivellaunus , besieged in his stronghold north of the Thames, sent a message to these four kings to attack the Roman naval camp as a distraction. The attack failed, a chieftain called Lugotorix was captured, and Cassivellaunus was forced to seek terms. In the century between Caesar s expeditions and the conquest under Claudius , kings in Britain began to issue coins stamped with their names.

Camulodunum is claimed to be the Oldest town in Britain oldest town in Britain as recorded by the Romans, existing as a Celt ic settlement before the Ancient Rome Roman conquest, when it became the first Roman town, and eventually a settlement of discharged Roman soldiers, known as Colonia Claudia Victricensis . There is archaeological evidence of settlement 3,000 years ago. Its Celtic name was Camulodunon , meaning the Fortress of Camulos Camulos being a British god equated with the Roman Mars mythology Mars . This name was modified to the Roman spelling of Camulodunum . Prehistoric era Camulodunon was the capital of the Trinovantes tribe, who built an impressive system of earthwork defences to the west and south of the town. It was probably established as their capital by Addedomarus , a king known from his inscribed coins dating to around 25 10 BC at the time of Caesar s invasions of Britain in 55 and 54 BC, the tribe were probably based at Braughing . For a brief period around 10 BC Tasciovanus , a king of the Catuvellauni already issuing coins from Verlamion , also issued coins from Camulodunon, suggesting that the Trinovantes capital had been conquered by the Catuvellauni, but he was soon forced to withdraw, perhaps as a result of Roman pressure his later coins are no longer marked with the Latin REX for king , but with the British language Brythonic RICON and Addedomarus was restored. His son Dubnovellaunus succeeded him, but was soon supplanted by Tasciovanus son Cunobelinus . Cunobelinus then succeeded his f ... more details
File Tasciovanus.jpg thumb Coin of Tasciovanus, king of the Catuvellauni . Tasciovanus was a historical king of the Catuvellauni tribe before the Roman conquest of Britain . History Tasciovanus is known only through numismatic evidence. He appears to have become king of the Catuvellauni ca. 20 BC, ruling from Verlamion the site of modern day St Albans . He is believed to have moved the tribal capital to that site from an earlier settlement, near modern day Wheathampstead . Citation needed date May 2007 For a brief period ca. 15 10 BC he issued coins from Camulodunum Colchester , apparently supplanting Addedomarus of the Trinovantes . After this he once again issued his coins from Verulamium, now bearing the title Ricon , Brythonic languages Brythonic for great divine king . Some of his coins bear other abbreviated names such as DIAS , SEGO and ANDOCO these are generally considered to be the names of co rulers or subordinate kings, but may instead be mint marks. He died ca. AD 9, succeeded by his son Cunobelinus , who ruled primarily from Camulodunum. Another son, Epaticcus , expanded his territory westwards into the lands of the Atrebates . ref Philip de Jersey 1996 , Celtic Coinage in Britain , Shire Archaeology John Creighton 2000 , Coins and power in Late Iron Age Britain , Cambridge University Press ref s start succession box before Cassivellaunus title Catuvellauni Kings King of the Catuvellauni after Cunobelinus years s end Medieval traditions A Harleian Genealogies genealogy preserved in the medieval Welsh manuscript Harleian 3859 contains three generations which read Caratauc map Cinbelin map Teuhant .
