Talk:Derventio Coritanorum

message: Where does the name "Derventio Coritanorum" come from? Is it derived from the Coritani?
Since the 1980s, the generally-academically-accepted reconstruction of the name of the civitas has been "Corieltauvorum"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corieltauvi.

thread_title:  Name? 

message: The map accompanying the Corieltauvi entry https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corieltauvi has this part of Derbyshire as being Corieltauvi territory. The map for the Cornovii   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornovii_(Midlands) has the Cornovi territory avoiding Derbyshire altogether. Is there any evidence that the current text saying 'This part of Britannia was occupied by a tribe known as the Cornovii' is correct?

message: Quite simply the fort at Derby cannot both be "Derventio Coritanorum" (Derventio of the Coritani) and simultaneously be in the territory of the Cornovi. So I think the claim that Derby was in Cornovi territory should be changed to something like 'it is not certain to what civitas Derventio belonged, but the Cornovi and Corieltavvi seem the most likely candidates'.
Secondly, Derby was never "Derventio Coritanorum" anyway, because this is an official form of address implying it's a civitas capital. If that's the case, I think there needs to be something about it, but then again, I've never heard such a thing, so I don't think it ever was the capital.
Third, "Coritanorum" has not been the reconstructed form of the civitas name since the 1980s. Not that it matters because it shouldn't appear in this article anyway, not being part of Derby's name, but if Derby is in the territory of the Corieltavvi, we should probably try and spell it properly.
Unless evidence to contradict the general thrust here is presented, I propose to change the article in line with the above.
