History:
The Gallic tribes of Iron Age Europe were known for their ferocity, mobility, and love of battle. Their warriors, often lightly clad and fighting in loosely organised warbands, posed a significant challenge to the more disciplined armies of Rome. Despite the lack of heavy armour, Gallic warriors relied on speed, intimidation, and sheer aggression. Their weaponry—typically spears, swords, and large oval shields—was effective in both skirmishing and close combat. Trumpeters and standard bearers were not only tactical assets but also symbols of tribal identity and morale. These warriors played key roles in conflicts against Caesar’s legions, Hannibal’s campaigns, and numerous regional uprisings throughout antiquity.
