	Nero Drusus - LoveToKnow 1911
		It was of great importance to pacify the Gauls, in order to have his hands free to deal with the German tribes, one of which, the Sugambri, on the right bank of the Rhine, had seized the opportunity, during the absence of Augustus, to cross the river (12).
		In his second campaign (I I), Drusus defeated the Usipetes, threw a bridge over the Luppia (Lippe), attacked the Sugambri, and advanced through their territory and that of the Tencteri and Chatti as far as the Weser, where he gained a victory over the Cherusci.
		The Chatti had joined the Sugambri in revolt; and, after some insignificant successes, Drusus returned with Augustus and Tiberius to Rome, and was elected consul for the following year.

	Sicambri - Biocrawler
		Sicambres, Sigambrer, Sugumbrer, Sugambri) were originally a Scythian or Cimmerian tribe who once inhabited the mouth of the river Danube.
		The Merovingian kings claimed their descent from the Sicambri, asserting that this tribe had changed their name to "Franks" in 11 BC under the leadership of a certain chieftain called "Franko".
		Their new homeland was located in what is now the region of Gelderland in the Netherlands, on the lower Rhine river.

	Cugerni
		The Sugambri understood that they were doomed and decided upon a preemptive strike, but Drusus defeated them twice: on the banks of the Rhine and in their homeland.
		Some of them were occupied before the Sugambri were forced to settle on the Rhine's left bank, which suggests that the ethnic unit of the Cugerni is a mixture of a native population and a Germanic tribe.
		Unlike the Sugambri, which had belonged to the Celtic La Tène-culture, the Franks were a "real" Germanic tribe.

	Julius Caesar: The first Germanic expedition
		I replied courteously and told them to have hostages brought to me. From the moment we had started building the bridge, the Sugambri had been preparing for flight.
		They were urged to do so by those of the Tencteri and the Usipetes who were with them, and so they left their own country and disappeared into uninhabited forests, taking all their belongings with them.
		There, the Ubians informed me, the Suebians were waiting for us to arrive and that was the place where they had decided to fight it out.

		But as a matter of fact he supposed that he could conduct the war in hand more successfully if he should hold off from those outside the Albis, who were living in peace, and should not incite them to make common cause with the others in their enmity against him.
		Rhenus, that began the war, Melo being their leader; and from that time on different peoples at different times would cause a breach, first growing powerful and then being put down, and then revolting again, betraying both the hostages they had given and their pledges of good faith.

		Accordingly all the barbarians except the Sugambri, through fear of them, made overtures of peace; but they gained nothing either at this time,— for Augustus refused to conclude a truce with them without the Sugambri,— or, indeed, later.
		To be sure, the Sugambri also sent envoys, but so far were they from accomplishing anything that all of these envoys, who were both many and distinguished, perished into the bargain.
		The Sugambri were thereupon quiet for a time, but later they amply requited the Romans for their calamity.

	GAIUS VOLUSENUS QUADRATUS
		In order to dupe the Germans into thinking that he would soon return, Caesar dismantled the last two hundred feet of the eastern (Ubian) end of the bridge, keeping the greater part of its length intact, thus implying that he would use it again in the near future.
		To protect his eastern flank during these operations Caesar relied on his ruse with the bridge to keep the Germans on their own side of the Rhine - this was to prove a costly gamble.
		Due to the distribution of Caesar's legions to north, west and south of Atuatuca, the Sugambri horsemen swept through the countryside towards Atuatuca totally unopposed.

	Somewhere under the rainbow ...
		Sabinus, in the council of war which immediately followed the interview, remarked that the Rhine was close by (subesse Rhenum [29, §3]), - a phrase which, one would think, he would hardly have used if the broad flood of the Meuse had intervened between the Rhine and Atuatuca.
		We are told that when the Sugambri invaded the country of the Eburones they crossed the Rhine (vi, 35, §6); but we are not told that, in order to reach Atuatuca, they crossed the Meuse.
		Except on the south and south-east, where it is approached by a very gentle ascent, it is naturally defenceless; and it was against this side that the first attack of the Sugambri would have been directed.

		Equating Sugambri with Sicambri is risky because of the legend of the Trojan origin of the Franks mentioned in the Liber Historiae Francorum; according to that legend written in 727 AD, the Franks came from "Sicambria" a fictitious country along the Danube river.
		When Clovis was baptised by St. Remigius, the latter referred to him literally as a "Sicamber." At least that is the way that this quote has come down to us.
		It probably comes from the fact that both words "Sicambri" and "Sugambri" have been used in Latin to name the same German tribe.
