This is the first detailed description of the attire and weaponry, as well as the combat style and organization of the Germanic tribes, which, under the leadership of the Cheruscan prince Arminius, initially served in the Roman army at the beginning of the 1st century, but ultimately formed the core of the successful resistance against the Roman occupying power.
