  • It seems nowadays that the defeated Teutons were not german but celtic tribe

  • Good vid! But you missed one final item of 'comic-releif': As Marius marched to meet the Cimbri in battle, the Romans got there BEFORE the news of Aquae Sextiae did. So, during the parley before the battle, the cheiftain of the Cimbri demanded lands and concessions for his men AND their Teutone allies...unaware that the Teutones had already been clobbered!

  • very good video, i enjoyed watching it :) have just finished reading about Marius and Sulla but i hope to learn more about them...im usuall into the punic wars and judio claudians. but this era, the social war, against mithridaties (cant spell him) and Sulla's march on rome is one i would love to learn more about!

  • not bad !!

  • well it didnt really go that way but :D

  • lol, funny intro xD

  • every time I drive to aix en provence when seing the Sainte Victoire montain (holy victory montain) I think of Marius 's feat and ask myself where exactly the battle took place

    Cheers

  • You should read other books from Adrian Goldsworthy, he is really good.
