The Ausetani were an ancient Iberians (pre-Ancient Rome) people of the Iberian Peninsula (the Roman Hispania). They are believed to have spoken the Iberian language. They lived in the eponymous region of Ausona and gave their name to the Roman city of Ausa.
Culture
The Ausetani minted their own coins which bore the inscription
ausesken in northeastern Iberian script that is interpreted in
Iberian language as a self-reference to the ethnic name of that people: from the Ausetani or from those of
Ausa.
