Compare earlier Belge n. 1.According to the earliest records (1st cent. bc in Caesar), the Belgae originally inhabited a territory stretching from the Marne and Seine to the Rhine (also referred to in classical Latin as Gallia Belgica : see Belgic adj.), but part of the group had by then migrated to southern Britain.
