The Sturii of Pliny the Elder.

[Helgiteut]

I'm not aware of anyone else having noted this before, though it seems easy to spot, so I'm most likely not the first. Look for the Stjurar in the first quote.

All inhabitants of beaches and shores, from the Denmarks to the Sandfal — now Scheldt — were called ‘Stiurar’ (steersmen), ‘Seakampar’ (sea warriors) and ‘Angelara’; ‘Angelara’ used to be the name of the fishermen at sea, because they only fished with ‘angel’ or pole [049] and never with nets.7.

Look for the Sturii.

XV. In the Rhine itself, the most notable island in the Rhine, that of the Batavi and Cannenefates, which is almost a hundred miles in length, and others are those of the Frisii, Chauci, Frisiavones, Sturii and Marsacii, which lie between Briel and Vlieland. The latter give their names to the mouths into which the Rhine divides, discharging itself on the north into the lakes there and on the west into the river Meuse, while at the middle mouth between these two it keeps a small channel for its own name. PLINY THE ELDER, Natural History

There is not much more to say, only that another classical mention of a Fryas tribe is mentioned. The Seakampar have already been noted to be linked to the Sugambri/Sicambri by Jan Ott. See the link to read up on them.https://www.historyfiles.co.uk/KingList ... cambri.htm

The Angelara seem to be the Angles, I'm not sure whether or not if that has been likewise noted by Jan Ott.

Yes, it was already mentioned by Ottema in his first (1872) edition. I could have added many more footnotes. A search on my blog will often be helpful to see if something has been discussed before.

Thanks Ott, I found this thread on the blog.
