Marius was a legendary king of the Britons during the time of the Roman occupation of Britain, as recounted in Geoffrey of Monmouth's pseudohistorical Historia Regum Britanniae.
Following numerous battles, Marius killed Rodric and set up a stone there to remember that triumph.
In respect for the people he defeated, he gave them a small portion of Albany called Caithness to live in.
Marius refused, however, to give them women to marry[2] so the Picts fled to Ireland and took wives there.
Marius established close ties with Rome and good diplomacy through tribute and respect of the Roman citizens in Britain.
