Class: spearmen · Category: infantry · Men per unit: 40
Tacitus has left the only known written description of Germanic warriors dressed in animal-skins. These men were auxiliaries, wielding over-sized spears (Tacitus, Histories, 2.88). Since these troops had been recruited near the Rhine, it is very possible that they were Sugambrians. The wild fighting-style of the Sugambrians certainly make them probable candidates (Caesar, Gallic War, 6.35, 6.37-41. Tacitus, Annals, 4.47. Tacitus, Annals, 4.47. Cassius Dio, 54.33.1-5).
