Vergobret

The vergobret (Gaulishuergobretos or uercobretos) was the chief magistrate among certain Gallic peoples. The office is described by Caesar among the Aedui in 58 and 52 BC, and is also attested after the Roman conquest among other Gallic peoples through epigraphic and numismatic evidence. It is the only Gaulish magistracy recorded at once in literary texts, on coins, and in inscriptions.
