Dictionary of Greek and Roman Geography

SUETRI(Σουητρίοι, Ptol. 3.1.42, written Σουκτρίοιin some editions), a Ligurian people, placed by Pliny (Plin. Nat. 3.4) above the Oxybii, who were on the coast between Fréjusand Antibes. The Suetri are the last people named in the Trophy of the Alps. If the position of their town Salinae [SALINAE] is properly fixed, the Suetri were in the northern part of the diocese of Fréjus.
