Caernarvon stands on the river Seint, Seient, Segont, said to have been built by Constantine the Great. Nennius gives it the name Kaer Kustenidh, for that reason: he probably made the Via Heleniana, in honour of his mother, called Sarn Helen.

Herirus mons has its name from the eagles inhabiting the place, Celtic.
