Viridovix

Viridovix was the chief of Unelli, a Gallic tribe which faced the legions of Julius Caesar at the time of the Roman conquest between 58 and 51 BC.

He assumed the command of a Gallic army of Lexovii and Aulerci Eburones against the legate Quintus Titurius Sabinus, against whom he suffered a defeat in 56 BC.

In Gallic the name Viridovix probably means "powerful (virido) combatant (vix, vicos) "
