The Battle of the Isère River (8 August 121 BC) took place near the modern day French town of Valence at the confluence of the Isère and Rhône rivers. A first confrontation had been won by Gnaeus Domitius Ahenobarbus at the Battle of Vindalium, further south in the Rhône Valley, before Ahenobarbus and Quintus Fabius Maximus Allobrogicus joined their forces, defeating a confederation of Allobroges, Arverni and some Salluvii warriors at the Isère River.

  • The Battle of the Isère River (8 August 121 BC) took place near the modern day French town of Valence at the confluence of the Isère and Rhône rivers. A first confrontation had been won by Gnaeus Domitius Ahenobarbus at the Battle of Vindalium, further south in the Rhône Valley, before Ahenobarbus and Quintus Fabius Maximus Allobrogicus joined their forces, defeating a confederation of Allobroges, Arverni and some Salluvii warriors at the Isère River. Roman consular legions were dispatched into Gaul repeatedly over a time period stretching from 125 to 121 BC to assist allies who repeatedly had come under attack from various Gallic tribes, most prominently the Salluvii, Allobroges, and Arverni. Each year during this time, a newly elected consul was dispatched by the Senate to Cisalpine Gaul in an effort to finally end the threat posed by these tribes towards the Roman allies in the region, and ultimately, to establish direct Roman control of the area.

  • La bataille du confluent est une bataille s'étant déroulée en 121 av. J.-C., opposant les troupes alliées des peuples arverne et allobroge aux légions romaines du consul Q. Fabius Maximus. Les Arvernes étaient menées par le roi Bituit selon Tite-Live (Épitomé, 61). Le combat est gagné par les troupes romaines et permet ainsi à Rome d'annexer le Sud de la Gaule, depuis la côte méditerranéenne jusqu'au cours moyen du Rhône (121 av. J.-C.), donnant ainsi naissance à la Provincia Romana ou Narbonnaise. (fr)
