Abstract

During the Roman conquest of Gaul between 58–51 B.C., the tribes of the Aedui and the Sequani provided important, but not entirely voluntary support to Caesar’s army. Although they entered into an alliance with Rome, their lands began to be actually occupied soon after. Understanding the situation they find themselves in requires a reversal of perspective and an analysis of events from the Gallic point of view. The author tries to characterize the benefits that Caesar gained from this increasingly coercive collaboration and the strategies of resistance adopted by his Gallic „allies”.
