	Lingones
		The loyalty of the Lingones to the Roman government was beyond dispute.
		The legionaries and Lingones who had supported the Roman government by suppressing the revolt of Vindex, now discovered that their loyalty was explained as an attempt to prevent Galba's accession.
		A second army, consisting of I Adiutrix, VIII Augusta, and XI Claudia, was officially commanded the new emperor's son Domitian (in fact by Appius Annius Gallus) and overcame the Lingonian revolt.

	Lingones - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Lingones were a Celtic tribe that originally lived in Gaul in the area of the headwaters of the Seine and Marne rivers.
		The Gaulish Lingones were thoroughly Romanized by the first century, living in a rich and urbanized society in the region of Langres and Dijon and minting coins, but getting caught up in the Batavian rebellion (AD 69), described by Tacitus.
		In Roman Britain, two cohorts of Lingones, probably subscripted from among the Lingones who had remained in the area of Langres and Dijon are attested in the 2nd and 3rd centuries, from dedicatory inscriptions and stamped tiles.

	Lingones - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Some of the Lingones migrated across the Alps and settled near the mouth of the Po River in Cisalpine Gaul of northern Italy around 400 BCE.
		The Gaulish Lingones were thoroughly Romanized by the first century, living in a rich and urbanized society in the region of Langres and Dijon and minting coins, but getting caught up in the Batavian rebellion (69 CE), described by Tacitus.
		In the war waged under the auspices of the Emperor Caesar Domitianus Augustus Germanicus and begun by Julius Civilis in Gaul, the very wealthy city of the Lingones, which had revolted to Civilis, feared that it would be plundered by the approaching army of Caesar.

	Tacitus: History: Book 4 [70]
		Accordingly neither the Treveri, the Lingones, nor the other revolted States, took measures at all proportioned to the magnitude of the peril they had incurred.
		Roman generals and Emperors entered your territory, as they did the rest of Gaul, with no ambitious purposes, but at the solicitation of your ancestors, who were wearied to the last extremity by intestine strife, while the Germans, whom they had summoned to their help, had imposed their yoke alike on friend and foe.
		Nor are the Treveri and Lingones bound by any ties of affection; once let their fear cease, and they will resume their arms." Classicus put an end to these differences of opinion by giving his approval to the suggestions of Tutor, which were at once acted on.

	The Batavian revolt 7: The Gallic empire
		They had seen that the three legions that had temporarily lifted the siege of Xanten (I Germanica, XVI Gallica, XXII Primigenia) were too small to deal effectively with the situation.
		The last Roman success was the relief of Mainz (which was now garrisoned with the Fourth legion Macedonica and the Twenty-second), but when general Gaius Dillius Vocula set out to offer help to the garrison at Xanten, his Treviran and Lingonian auxiliaries deserted.
		As we will see, the Trevirans and Lingones were fully romanized and wanted to start an empire of their own -the Gallic empire- whereas the Batavians wanted independence of some sort (their war aims are discussed above).

	The Attack On Vetera
		Julius Civilis had renewed the siege of the Fifth legion Alaudae and Fifteenth legion Primigenia at Vetera, and the Trevirans and Lingones, ancient Gallic but romanized tribes living along the Mosel and upper Rhine, decided to revolt, too.
		The last Roman success was the relief of Mainz (which was now garrisoned with the Fourth legion Macedonica and the Twenty-second), but when general Caius Dillius Vocula set out to offer help to the garrison at Vetera, his Treviran and Lingonian auxiliaries deserted.
		The result was that the Gauls invited the Trevirans and Lingones to stop their aggression, especially now that the Gallic emperor was (or seemed) dead.

	The Celtic Tribes of Roman Gaul
		Caesar sent emissaries to ward the Lingones not to aid the Helvetii, who were forced to surrender due to lack of food.
		Even during the revolt of Vercingetorix in 52 BCE the Lingones were amongst Caesar's allies at the siege of Alesia.
		In addition, the realm of the Lingones was included in the occupied Roman territory of Germania Superior and undoubtedly produced food for the garrisons of Mainz.

		But the Treviri and Lingones carried most weight and were intolerant of long negotiations.
		It is clear that the Treviri and Lingones were prejudiced in the eyes of the Gallic provinces by the circumstance that they had sided with Verginius during the revolt of Vindex.
		The centre was assigned to the Ubii and Lingones.

		Besides this, the Treveri, the Lingones, and the other states which Galba had most seriously injured by his severe edicts and by the confiscation of their territory, were particularly close to the winter-quarters of the legions.
		The legions were on the verge of mutiny, when Hordeonius Flaccus ordered the envoys to depart, and to make their departure more secret, directed them to leave the camp by night.
		The inhabitants of Colonia Agrippinensis, the Treveri, and the Lingones, shewed as much zeal as the army, making offers of personal service, of horses, of arms and of money, according as each felt himself able to assist the cause by his own exertions, by his wealth, or by his talents.

		Valentines acted as the leader of the Treviri, but took more pains to secure their fidelity by ha rangues than their success by warlike preparations.
		Cerealis soon marched against them from Magontiacum, stormed the strong position of Valentinus at Rigodulum, and entered Treviri, where he harangued and pardoned the two legions just mentioned, as well as the Treviri and Lingones.
		Valentinus, who had been taken prisoner at Rigodulum, was sent into Italy, and was delivered up to Mucianus and Domitian, who were on their march to support Cerealis.

		Apart from this, the Gallic communities such as the Treviri and Lingones, at whom Galba had struck hard by means of severe edicts or loss of territory, lie in specially close contact with the legionary camps.
		When the story found a ready hearing among the troops, the Lingones went on to lament the dangers and humiliation to which the army itself was exposed.
		At Hispalis and Emerita additional families of settlers were incorporated, the Lingones received a block grant of Roman citizenship, and the province of Baetica was assigned some Moorish communities.

	Northern Earth - Altar Stones of Ilkley
		Camden guessed that 'Verbeia' was the goddess of the Wharfe, and that the altar had been set up in relieved gratitude by Clodius Fronto after nearly coming a cropper in the river.
		It is possible that as the tutelary deity of the Lingones Cohort, the form of Verbeia was shown with two snakes in order to represent the two serpentine streams that flowed either side of the fort.
		She was obviously a Water Goddess, associated with the life-giving and life-taking powers of the Wharfe and its tributaries.

	Gaul, Iberia, & Galatia
		Some scholars believe Celtic evolved from proto-Indo-European around 1000 B.C. The iron-using Celtic Hallstatt culture gave rise to the La Tene Celts in the fifth century B.C. The people of Gaul spoke a P-Celtic language that was similar to the Celtic languages of Britain.
		The Celtic tribes of Gaul included the Ligures, Saluvii, Volcae Arecomice, Volcae Tectosages, Tarbelli Ausci, Boii, Cadurci, Allobroges, and Helvii in the south, the Petrocorii, Santones, Pictones, Lemovices, Averni, Velavii, Segusiavii, Sequani, Mandubii, Bituriges Cubi, Carnutes, and Lingones in the middle, and the Veliocasses, Caletes, Ambiani, Atrebates, Morini, and Menapii in the north.
		Vercingetorix was strangled in Rome six months later on the orders of Caesar in 51 B.C. The last of the resistance leaders was Commios, the Atrebatian.

	TRACCE 10 - The Swastika Stone
		Also, the Roman cohort which set up her altar were recruited from the Lingones, a Gaulish Celtic tribe.
		It seems tempting to think that the Lingones cohort carved the Swastika Stone when they were here, but this would surely be unusual.
		Or perhaps the recruited Celtic/Roman troops were influenced in their choice of 'genuis loci', Verbeia, by the native Celts of West Yorkshire, the Brigantes (whose name derives from the goddess Brigantia, related to Brigid), who may have already carved the stone.

		It follows that the encampment of Vercingetorix, close to which the battle was fought, was either in `the furthest part of the country of the Lingones' or in the country of the Sequani, less than 10 Roman miles from the Saone, which separated them from the Lingones.
		- The territory of the Lingones comprised the dioceses of Langres and Dijon (C.G., pp.
		This would be true whether the Catuvellauni were grouped with the Remi or the Lingones; but most probably their territory belonged to the former, who were the more powerful (vi, 12, §7).
