[1] Celtiberis: Celtiberia is the ancient denomination of the region in North-Central Spain inhabited by the Celtiberi tribes. It is situated in the hill country between the Tajo and Ebro rivers, a territory corresponding roughly to the Spanish provinces of Soria, Guadalajara and Teruel. Here the name is used in a broader sense, including the coastal region of North-Eastern Spain.
