Etymology:
It is unknown whether the title 'Pict' was appointed by the first Roman soldiers to encounter the Picts, or whether the word was of Celtic origin and had in fact been adopted into everyday Latin. It is certain either way however, that 'Picti' is Latin for 'Painted Ones'; an undeniably accurate representation of the ancient Pictish warriors. The Kingdoms and Clans of the Picts became known as 'Pictavia' to the Classical Civilizations of the Mediterranean, and later known as 'Pictland' to the Anglo-Saxons and latterly the British Empire. The second independent Pictish state is officially known as 'New Pictavia', or in its Latinized form; 'Nova Pictavia'.
