BELGICA, BRONZE OF THE NERVII, Bavay area, 1st century BC, 4.781g, 3h. DT 626. Untouched dark green patina. Oblong flan. Very fine. From a French private collection The Nervii were one of the most powerful Belgic tribes, living in northern Gaul at the time of its conquest by Rome. Their territory corresponds to the central part of modern Belgium, including Brussels, and stretched southwards into French Hainault. Julius Caesar considered the Nervii to be the most warlike of the Belgic tribes, and that the Belgic tribes were the bravest in Gaul. Their culture was a Spartan one: they would not partake of alcoholic beverages or any other such luxury, feeling that the mind must remain clear to be brave! Starting Price: €200
