The Battle of Sabis (57 BCE) nearly cost Julius Caesar his life. Ambushed by Nervii warriors who crossed the river in disciplined silence, Roman camps were overwhelmed before fortifications could be raised. Caesar personally grabbed a shield and joined the front line to stabilize the legion. The battle turned only when reinforcements flanked the Nervii from behind. Sabis became one of Caesar’s closest brushes with defeat and a testament to the ferocity of Belgic warfare. #Sabis #JuliusCaesar #Ga
