Laietani

Laietani

The Laietani were an ancient Iberian (Pre-Roman) people of the Iberian peninsula (the Roman Hispania). They are believed to be of Iberian language.

The Laietani minted their own coins which bore the inscription "laiesken" in northeastern Iberian script that is interpreted in Iberian language as a self-reference to the ethnic name of that people: from the Laietani or from those of "Laie".
