    Fortunately the Roman general, Scipio Africanus, was more than a match for them.

    The anceint celts had a practice of defeat, plunder and move on. I think thevalue of that was not having the overhead and drain on the forces of an occupation. However the fault of the celts on the other hand was their lack of a unified national unity. Vercengetorix came too late as being a central ruler.

    Gen. Patton believed that he fought in that war in a past life and even wrote a poem about the battle.
