'''Cartimandua''' (fl. 1st century CE) was a [[Britons|Briton]] chieftain of the {{Wiki|Brigantes}} tribe and wife to [[Venutius]].

==Biography==
Cartimandua did not oppose the Roman {{Wiki|Roman conquest of Britain|incursions}} into Britain, with her husband originally following her lead. However, when the Britonnic warrior [[Caratacus]] went to the Brigantes for sanctuary, Cartimandua betrayed him and delivered Caratacus to the Romans against Venutius' counsel.<ref name="DB">''[[Assassin's Creed: Valhalla]]'' – [[Database: Venutius]]</ref><ref name="Float">''Assassin's Creed: Valhalla'' – [[Floating conversations]]: Tombs of the Fallen</ref>

Venutius opposed her actions and Cartimandua then took his standard-bearer {{Wiki|Vellocatus}} as her lover. Venutius turned on her Roman patrons and soon became one of Rome's fiercest opponents, waging war across northern [[England]] and into [[Wales]] for years. Eventually, Venutius took complete command of the Brigantes,<ref name="DB"/> with Cartimandua disappearing from the records.<ref>{{WP|Cartimandua}}</ref>
