Question: What language was spoken by the people in the British Isles during the colonizers of Nehesy's country in the 1st century BC?

the earliest known references to the islands as a group appeared in the writings of sea-farers from the ancient greek colony of massalia. the original records have been lost; however, later writings, e.g. avienus's ora maritima, that quoted from the massaliote periplus (6th century bc) and from pytheas's on the ocean (circa 325–320 bc) have survived. in the 1st century bc, diodorus siculus has prettanikē nēsos, "the british island", and prettanoi, "the britons". strabo used βρεττανική (brettanike), and marcian of heraclea, in his periplus maris exteri, used αἱ πρεττανικαί νῆσοι (the prettanic isles) to refer to the islands. historians today, though not in absolute agreement, largely agree that these greek and latin names were probably drawn from native celtic-language names for the archipelago. along these lines, the inhabitants of the islands were called the πρεττανοί (priteni or pretani). the shift from the "p" of pretannia to the "b" of britannia by the romans occurred during the time of julius caesar. <SEP> some women in the isle of man (geographically part of the british isles but not part of the united kingdom) gained the right to vote in 1881. though it did not achieve nationhood until 1907, the colony of new zealand was the first self - governing country in the world in which all women had the right to vote in, but not to stand for, parliamentary elections in 1893, followed closely by the colony of south australia in 1894 (which, unlike new zealand, allowed women to stand for parliament). in sweden, conditional women's suffrage was granted during the age of liberty between 1718 and 1772. <SEP> In 332 BC, Macedonian ruler Alexander the Great conquered Egypt as he toppled the Achaemenids and established the Hellenistic Ptolemaic Kingdom, whose first ruler was one of Alexander's former generals, Ptolemy I Soter. The Ptolemies had to fight native rebellions and were involved in foreign and civil wars that led to the decline of the kingdom and its final annexation by Rome. The death of Cleopatra ended the nominal independence of Egypt resulting in Egypt becoming one of the provinces of the Roman Empire. <SEP> The Romans expanded their civilisation to control southern Great Britain but were impeded in advancing any further, building Hadrian's Wall to mark the northern frontier of their empire in 122 AD. At the time of the Roman Empire, about two thousand years ago, various tribes, which spoke Celtic dialects of the Insular Celtic group, were inhabiting the islands. At that time, Ireland was populated by a people known as Hiberni, the northern third or so of Great Britain by a people known as Picts and the southern two thirds by Britons. <SEP> He is placed by most scholars into the early 14th Dynasty, as either the second or the sixth pharaoh of this dynasty. As such he is considered to have reigned for a short time c. 1705 BC and would have ruled from Avaris over the eastern Nile Delta. Recent evidence makes it possible that a second person with this name, a son of a Hyksos king, lived at a slightly later time during the late 15th Dynasty c. 1580 BC. It is possible that most of the artefacts attributed to the king Nehesy mentioned in the Turin canon, in fact belong to this Hyksos prince. Nehesy Aasehre (Nehesi) was a ruler of Lower Egypt during the fragmented Second Intermediate Period.
