The Ilergetes were an ancient Iberian (Pre-Roman) people of the Iberian Peninsula (the Roman Hispania) who dwelt in the plains area of the rivers Segre and Cinca towards Iberus (Ebro) river, and in and around Ilerda/Iltrida, present-day Lleida/Lérida. They are believed to have spoken the Iberian language.
History Indibilis and Mandonius, brothers and chieftains of the Ilergetes, resisted the Carthaginian and Roman invasions in the 3rd century BC.
