Koriondoi

Iron Age people · Ireland · attested 30 BC–AD 300

The Koriondoi were a people of Ireland in the Iron Age. Like almost every people of this period, they are known essentially through outside observers, and what survives is little more than a name and an approximate location. The name is attested as Koriondoi probable [pleiades] .

Approximate locations — points, not territories (Pleiades representative coordinates). Colour marks region; the borders of these peoples are unknown. Tap a point for the people.

We do not draw a territory for the Koriondoi. Their borders are unknown and contested; the point above marks only an approximate location, not an extent — and there is no line of descent from this people to the later clans or to anyone today. Beyond this ancient attestation, no verified later record attaches to the name.
