The Cerretani or Ceretani were ancient
pre-Roman people of the Iberian Peninsula who occupied what became the modern-day
Cerdanya, in the valley
Segre and part of
Aragon. Their neighbours from the east were
Ausetani and from the south
Ilergetes. Their capital was Julia libyca, modern
Llívia.[1] They are noted in Greek and Roman geographical treatises.[2]
