According to Strabo, the Artabri were an ancient Gallaeci tribe, Celts living in the extreme north-west of the Iberian Peninsula, now the region of Galicia, Spain, about Cape Nerium, outskirts of today's city of Ferrol, where in Roman times, in the 1st century BC, a fishing port existed which also traded in metals as well as wild horses and most likely administered from nearby Nerium in an area dominated by the Artabri) giving name to the Portus Magnus Artabrorum. Strabo reports several seaports among the Artabri. Ptolemy places them among Galaeci Lucenses and gives their capital town as Lucus Augusti.
