Novem Populania means New Settling and not Nine Peoples. Confusion is indeed possible, as the number 9 is often associated with the adjective “nine/new”. This name reflects the expansion of peoples from the north of Spain towards France (later corresponding to the boundaries of the “Duchy of Vasconia”). It is therefore quite possible, as ancient texts stipulate, that the number of tribes composing this confederation was 12 and not 9. 2A01:E0A:19F:F590:A:487C:F9ED:6469 (talk) 10:55, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
