Segimundus

the son of Segestes, was appointed priest of an altar in the neighbourhood of Cologne, probably the altar raised to Augustus Caesar. He afterwards rejoined his tribe, the Cheruscans. In A. D. 14 Sigimundus was one of the envoys whom Segestes sent to Germanicus, when the Cheruscans were besieging him in his own house. Germanicus pardoned the previous defection of Sigimundus, and allowed him to share his father's exile in Narbonne. [SEGESTES.] (Tac. Ann. 1.57. 58; Strab. vii. p.291.)
