Britomaris

By Roman tradition, Britomaris was a warchief leader of the Gallic tribe known as the Senones in 284 BC when he defeated a Roman army under the command of the Consul Lucius Caecilius Metellus Denter. He was presumably defeated the next year by Publius Cornelius Dolabella and taken prisoner. He was executed after Dolabella's triumph, in accordance with Roman custom.
