 CelticWorld Forum :: CULTURA :: Cimbri e Teutoni: Celti o Germani?
coloro che tentano di affermare la celticità dei Cimbri e dei Teutoni, per prima cosa tentano di promuovere un discorso su basi linguistiche, affermando che i nomi dei due popoli sono di radice celtica.
"Teutoni" invece, molto probabilmente trova la sua radice in un termine dal significato riconduvibile a "tribù, comunità", ma certo non bisogna credere che la parola "teuta", o le forme a lei simili, siano esclusive dei popoli celtici, vista l'antichissima radice indeuropea della parola in questione.
I Romani conoscevano bene i Celti, avendoli combattuti pe più di duecento anni in Italia, e sei Cimbri ed i teutoni fossero appartenuti alla famiglia celtica, certo non avrebbero avuto esitezioni nel dirlo, e la dimostrazione ci viene data dai testi successivi, scritti quando i Romani avevano imparato a conoscere i Germani e a identificarli.

 Marius - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Cimbri and the Teutoni (both migrating Germanic tribes) appeared on the Rhône, and while Caepio was on the west bank he refused to come to the aid of Mallius on the left.
The Teutoni were to head south and advance toward Italy along the Mediterranean coast; the Cimbri were to attempt to cross the Alps into Italy from the northwest by the Brenner Pass; and the Tigurini (the allied Celtic tribe who had defeated Longinus in 107) were to cross the Alps from the northeast.
First Marius had to deal with the Teutoni, who were in the province of Narbonensis marching toward the Alps.

 Marius - Open Encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
The Cimbri conveniently marched into Spain and the Teutoni milled around in northern Gaul, leaving Marius to prepare his army.
In 103 the Germans still did not emerge from Spain, and conveniently Marius's colleague (L. Aurelius Orestes, son of C. Gracchus's commander in Sardinia in 126-24) died, so Marius had to return to Rome to oversee the elections, being re-elected for 102.
Marius was in Rome, and after becoming elected consul for 101 and deferring his triumph over the Teutoni, he marched north to join Catulus, whose command was prorogued into 101.

 Hampden Latin
Their strategy was a three-pronged assault, with the Teutoni invading along the coast, the Cimbri coming through the Alps via the northwest Brenner Pass, and the Tigurini through the Alps via the northeast.
Advantage: Theoretically the Romans would be overwhelmed with the three assaults at the same time and their new, smaller army would not be able to handle the massive amounts of Germans from three directions.
The first test for Marius was against the Teutoni at the Gallic town of Aquae Sextiae, located in southern Gaul close to the Mediterranean.
