The Latin word Glevum refers to a town in Roman Britain - more formally known as Colonia Nervia Glevensium. It was originally a colonia, meaning a town established to house retired Roman troops after leaving the army and it is known today as Gloucester.The origins of the word itself are obscure, but often the Romans continued to call places by their original British Celtic names (or as close as they could manage to pronounce them). Perhaps the local British tribe (the Dobunni) called the area something like gleev or glouv, which may mean "bright", so "a bright place".The modern Welsh word glair (bright) is closely related.
