The Battle of Silva Litana was an ambush that took place in a forest 75 miles northwest of the Roman city of Ariminum during the Second Punic War in 216 BC. The Gallic Boii surprised and destroyed a Roman army of 25,000 men under the consul-elect Lucius Postumius Albinus and destroyed the Roman army, with only ten men surviving the ambush, a few prisoners were taken by the Gauls and Postumius was killed, his corpse was decapitated and his skull was covered with gold and used as a ceremonial cup by the Boii. News of this military disaster, reaching Rome probably after the election of consuls for 215 BC in Spring 215 BC or after the defeat at Cannae in the fall of 216 BC, triggered a renewed panic in Rome and forced the Romans to postpone military operations against the Gauls until the concl

  • Litana Silva era un territori dels bois de la Gàl·lia Cispadana on aquesta tribu celta va obtenir una gran victòria sobre el cònsol romà Luci Postumi Albí, l'any 216 aC. El cònsol i el seu exèrcit, que el formaven dues legions i un cer nombre de tropes auxiliars, fins a 25.000 homes, van ser massacrats, segons diu Titus Livi. Més tard els romans dirigits pel cònsol L. Valerius Flaccus, van derrotar els bois al mateix lloc l'any 195 aC. El lloc era situat entre Bononia i Placentia però la situació exacta no es coneix. (ca)
  • La batalla de la Selva Litana fue un enfrentamiento militar librado en 216 a. C., durante el contexto de la segunda guerra púnica, al noroeste de Ariminum (Rímini) en que los celtas boyos emboscaron y destruyeron a unas legiones romanas lideradas por el cónsul sufecto Lucio Postumio Albino, quien murió en el combate.

  • Pertempuran Silva Litana adalah serangan secara tiba-tiba yang terjadi di sebuah hutan terletak 120 Km arah barat laut kota Romawi Ariminum pada 216 SM, selama berlangsungnya Perang Punik II. Orang-orang Boii dari Suku Galia, menyerang dan menghancurkan pasukan Romawi yang terdiri dari 25.000 orang yang dipimpin oleh konsul terpilih Lucius Postumius Albinus. Hanya sepuluh orang yang dapat lolos dari penyergapan tersebut, beberapa tahanan diambil dan Postumius dibunuh dengan dipenggal dan tengkoraknya dilapisi emas oleh orang Boii. Berita tentang bencana militer tersebut, datang beberapa hari atau bulan setelah kekalahan pasukan Romawi di Cannae, lalu memicu kepanikan baru di Roma. Akhirnya Romawi menunda operasi militer melawan Galia hingga berakhirnya Perang Punik II. (in)
  • La bataille de Litana Sylva est une victoire des Gaulois boïens sur les Romains, en 216 av. J.-C. Litana Sylva est forêt de l’Italie ancienne, dans la Gaule cispadane, sur les confins de la Ligurie et de l’Étrurie, non loin de Forum Cornelii (aujourd’hui Imola). Son lieu exact est inconnu. (fr)
  • La Selva Litana entrò per un breve momento nella storia ufficiale di Roma in quanto luogo di un famoso agguato (spesso impropriamente definito "battaglia") teso dai Galli Boi a un grosso contingente romano. In quanto sede di un grave colpo all'onore militare delle legioni di Roma, diventa comprensibile quindi che a questa selva, man mano ridotta e distrutta per fare posto alle coltivazioni della centuriazione romana, sia stata riservata una vera e propria damnatio memoriae.

  • A Emboscada da Floresta Litana entrou, por um breve momento, na história oficial da Roma Antiga como uma emboscada (geralmente definida, incorretamente, como uma "batalha") desferida pelos gauleses boios contra um grande contingente romano, que foi completamente destruído. Como lembrança de um grande golpe à honra das legiões romanas, é compreensível que esta floresta tenha sido completamente destruída para dar lugar ao cultivo agrícola na forma de centuriações, uma verdadeira forma de damnatio memoriae.
