context_page_description: The Eburovices, Aulerci Eburovices or Eburovici were a Gallic tribe, a branch of the Aulerci. They are mentioned by Julius Caesar with the Lexovii. Pliny speaks of the Aulerci, qui cognominantur Eburovices, et qui Cenomani. Ptolemy makes the Αὐλέρκοι Ἐβουραϊκοί extend from the Ligeris to the Sequana, which is not true. Their chief place was Mediolanum Aulercorum. Their limits correspond to those of the later diocese of Évreux, and they are north of the Carnutes.
