About: Britomaris

An Entity of Type: person, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Britomaris was a war chief of the Senone tribe of the Gauls of northern Italy. He is briefly mentioned in a text by Appian, who said that he killed some Roman ambassadors who were sent to remonstrate about him providing mercenaries for forces which fought the Romans despite having signed a treaty with Rome. Britomaris killed the ambassadors because he was angry about his father having been killed while fighting on the side of the Etruscans "in this very war." Publius Cornelius Dolabella (the consul for 283 BC) then devastated the ager Gallicus (the name the Romans gave to the land which had been conquered by the Senones), killed all the men, enslaved the women and children and made the place uninhabitable. Britomaris was taken prisoner for torture.

  • Britomaris (en llatí Britomaris) va ser un cabdill dels gals sènons, que va induir als seus paisans a matar als ambaixadors romans enviats per queixar-se de l'assistència que els sènons havien prestat als etruscs durant la guerra amb Roma. Quan se'n va assabentar el cònsol Publi Corneli Dolabel·la, va sortir amb un exèrcit cap a territori dels sènons, i el va assolar, matant a tots els mascles que va trobar. Britomaris va ser fet presoner i va ser exhibit al triomf del cònsol, i tot seguit executat. (ca)

Britomaris was taken prisoner for torture. Appian also wrote that "[a] little later the Senones (who were serving as mercenaries), having no longer any homes to return to, fell boldly upon the consul Domitius, and being defeated by him killed themselves in despair." It is not clear which battle this was. It could have been the Battle of Lake Vadimo of the same year, fought by Etruscan and Gallic forces, or probably, and more likely, another battle, mentioned by Polybius, which was fought after this and where the Etruscans and Gauls were defeated again and sued for peace.

  • Según la tradición romana, Britomaro fue un líder guerrero de una tribu gala conocida como los senones que derrotó al ejército romano dirigido por Lucio Cecilio Metelo Denter en 284 a. C., en la batalla de Arretium. Supuestamente habría sido derrotado al año siguiente por un nuevo ejército romano, dirigido en este caso por Publio Cornelio Dolabela, cónsul del año 283 a. C. En esa batalla Britomaro habría sido hecho prisionero, y habría sido ejecutado según la costumbre romana a la finalización del triunfo otorgado al Cornelio Dolabela. (es)
