Lusotannan (Hannibal at the Gates) City Centre Level 4

Bardic Circle

Through song and poetry the glorious dead are honoured.

Little is known for certain of the ways and practices of the ancient druids. Classical writers stated that these mysterious men refused to write their secrets down, preferring to pass their knowledge from generation to generation orally. The writer Diodorus Siculus was the first to discuss the idea that there were distinct roles within the druid system, and it was Strabo who divided these into three separate classes; those who studied moral philosophy were known as the 'druidai'; the diviners and specialists in the natural world were the 'o'vateis'; and the poets and singers were the 'bardoi'. The bardoi, or bards, were responsible for passing on history in poetry and song. History always included the brave deeds of warriors as well as knowledge of the gods and the natural world.

1	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Ibe_Lusotannan_Skirm) Cateramuniti (Lusitani Levy Skirmishers) The Cateramuniti are the most common skirmishers in any Lusitanian force. Used to harass and antagonise the enemy with showers of iron-tipped javelins, they weave to and fro, avoiding direct hand-to-hand combat whenever possible. These warbands are the lightest and among the most 'annoying' harassment troops in Iberia. They cause many casualties, before retreating back into the night or hills, and attacking again the following day.

2	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Ibe_Lusotannan_Slingers) Bouti (Lusitani Slingers) With the abandonment of the bow by the end of the Bronze Age, the sling is the only long-ranged missile weapon to be found in 3rd century Iberia. It has always been the weapon of choice of the shepherd, who relies on its range and accuracy to keep predators such as wolves and lynxes from threatening his valuable flock.
