Ambigatos
In the Celtic Mythology Gallic, Ambigatos (sometimes Latinized in Ambigatus), is a mythical king of the people Celte of the Bituriges. Tite-Live date its existence towards 600 before J. - C. but no archaeological documentation accredits its historicity. The direction of its name is “that which fights on the two sides”.
According to the legend, king Ambigatos has two nephews Bellovesos and Segovesos which it sends to the conquest new territories. Bellovesos takes the direction of south-east and, in current the Italy founds the city of Mediolanum (Milan), whose name means the center of the plain. Segovesos, as for him, share towards the North-East and the large forest hercynienne.
It is probably about a myth founder, from which the origin would come from another Celtic people, the Insubres, which occupied the territories of current the Lombardy.
