History:
The Iberians were a group of fiercely independent tribal peoples inhabiting the eastern and southern coasts of the Iberian Peninsula. Skilled in guerrilla tactics, hill fighting, and swift raids, they earned a reputation for defiance against both Roman and Carthaginian domination. Despite their resistance, Iberian warriors were also recruited as mercenaries—most notably serving under Hannibal during his campaign in Italy. Their equipment was a unique blend of native design and external influence, combining locally produced blades with imported helmets and scutums. With vibrant war dress and distinctive tattoos, Iberian fighters brought both flair and ferocity to ancient battlefields.
