Epaticcus, (leader of horsemen), was considered to be a son of Tasciovanus and was a powerful prince of the Catuvellauni. He captured some Atrebatic territory which he ruled on behalf of his brother Cunobelinus. Because his coins are normally found south of the Thames they are classed as Atrebatic.
