Episode CLXXIII - Arminius
Manage episode 302213547 series 2149383
There were few enemies of the Romans who had as much success as Arminius. One of the Germani who fought at their side, he was able to unite the disparate tribes, lure three Roman legions into a trap, and defeat them at the battle of Teutoburg Forest. His success and later resistance would leave the area largely free of Roman influence.
Part II of ‘Enemies of Rome’
Guest: Dr Emma Southon (Historian and author of 'A Fatal Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum').
