Talk:Atuatuci

message: Overall an excellent article - I understand that it can be difficult to find information on some of the tribes from Gaul - you've done a great job. You have a very good summary of Aduatuci history here. A couple suggestions - first, just double check grammar, there were a couple spots I wasn't sure about, a minor detail. Second - fighting style vs the Romans. Do Aduatuci fight in a certain way? How powerful was their army? Any more detail on that is excellent. Otherwise, great job! - Eugenia Gabrielov 129.105.4.184 15:47, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Thanks, that's not impossible indeed that small survivor groups were eventually absorbed by the Tungri. Added in the article. Alcaios (talk) 14:06, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
replies: text:  No worries. Not saying we need to insert it, or that this is the only source, but it also seemed relevant to a few of the articles you are working on. Concerning the Atuatuci, it strikes me that neither of us have re-checked the Nico Roymans article so now we just have one sentence. Actually this should probably be given a bit more discussion. (Roymans is a quite notable source for this region and period, and his evidence is new and quite solid.) I also noticed a newer but perhaps more popular-style article, which has some notable one-liners: https://www.academia.edu/12866878/Fire_and_Sword._The_archaeology_of_Caesar_s_Gallic_War --Andrew Lancaster (talk) 14:21, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
replies: text:  Yes, I agree that the part from Roymans should be extended. The original bullet points were based on a press article, so I have replaced this reference with the book, although I didn't find the time to read more of it to expand the sentence. This can be done now. Alcaios (talk) 14:26, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Do you want to try first, or shall I this time?--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 15:28, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: You can do it. Consider also the remark about the map/picture of the Citadel of Namur. Alcaios (talk) 15:40, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Good point. I won't rush on that until I first see what else I can find. I suppose there might be a possibility of showing several possible places in a "gallery". OTOH, Thuin seems to be by far the front runner now?--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 16:05, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, this seems to be the leading theory. Alcaios (talk) 16:15, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

text: PS: This short RTBF article from last year: "On a des armes. On a des balles de fronde qui montrent effectivement qu’il y a eu une bataille ici. Mais, nous n’avons pas suffisamment d’indices pour prouver que ce soit effectivement des épisodes de la guerre des Gaules." [We've got weapons. We have slingshots that actually show there was a battle here. But, we don't have enough evidence to prove that this was indeed a Gallic Wars episode]. Alcaios (talk) 16:19, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Roymans uses more evidence, especially what he considers to be dateable coins, but for sure not everyone agrees yet. I just get the impression it is the leading proposal once Roymans backed it?--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 16:28, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, I meant: it is the leading theory, although it should not be regarded as the definitive theory. Alcaios (talk) 16:33, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: For recent decades, I found one self-published article so far but not much else in opposition to the new proposal. I will look at the rtbf.--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 17:35, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
