CW: CW: Violence, Slavery
The Battle of Morbihan was a significant naval conflict during the Gallic Wars, fought between the Roman fleet and the navy of the Veneti, a powerful seafaring tribe in northwestern Gaul.
The conflict was caused by Roman demands for grain during the winter of 57–56 BC. In a move to resist Roman exploitation and safeguard their resources, the Veneti detained two Roman officers sent to enforce Caesar’s demands.
#Strabo later suggests that the #Veneti were aware of Caesars intentions to invade Britain and this move was also taken in defense of the Britons as well.
The Veneti’s knowledge of local sea conditions and their sturdy, well-designed ships gave them an initial advantage. Their vessels, with high sides and strong leather sails, were well-suited to the rough Atlantic waters and could withstand Roman boarding actions. The Romans, however, adapted their tactics by using hooks to cut the rigging of the Veneti ships, rendering them immobile and vulnerable.
In the aftermath of the battle, #Caesar ordered the execution of their tribal elders and the rest of the Veneti population was sold into slavery, effectively dismantling the tribal community. These actions served not only as a punishment but also as a clear message to other Gallic tribes of the consequences of opposing Roman rule.
C. Julius Caesar. Caesar’s Gallic War Book 3 Chapter 10. Translator. W. A. McDevitte. Translator. W. S. Bohn. 1st Edition. New York. Harper & Brothers. 1869. Harper’s New Classical Library.

#Archaeologists believe they found the temple of Poseidon in Greece
The area where the remains were found is prone to tsunamis which would make sense because Poseidon is the god of #tsunamis.
by Jerusalem Post Staff, Janurary 12, 2023
"The location where the remains were found corresponds to the area referred to by ancient Greek historian #Strabo who described the shrine some 2,000 years ago."
