Epaticcus expanded his influence into the territory of the Atrebates in the early 20s AD, taking the Atrebatan capital Calleva (Silchester) by about 25. He continued to expand his territory until his death in about 35, when his nephew Caratacus took
over from him and the Atrebates recovered some of their territory.

Tasciovanus was King of Britain and was a gentle, but firm ruler.
He seems to have become king of the Catuvellauni about 20 B.C.
ruling initially from Verulamium (St Albans). It appears that he ruled over the
Trinovantes for a brief period as some of his coins were issued from
Camulodunum (Colchester). He must have lost Camulodunum and then his coins
were again issued from Verulamium.
He refused to pay the Tribute to Rome which was exacted from his uncle
Caswallon when overcome by Julius Caesar. Then he reconquered Camulodunum
by about 9 A.D., and died shortly afterwards.

He had two notable sons: Cunobelinus, who succeeded him, and Epaticcus,
who gained territory at the expense of the Atrebates.
