Historical background


ATUATUCI (Currently Belgium)

(2nd - 1st century BC)

The Atuatuques, people of Belgian Gaul, were located on the territory of present-day Belgium between the banks of the Sambre and the Meuse in the present-day provinces of Liège and Namur. They were of Germanic origin and believed to be the descendants of a detachment of Cimbri and Teutons settled during the invasions of 115-101 BC Caesar (BG. II, 4, 16, 29, 31; V, 27, 38, 39, 56; VI, 2, 33).
