In this first video in our larger series, we explore the origins and early life of Quintus Sertorius, tactical genius and Roman Rebel captain of Hispania.

Today, we take a look at the early life of Sertorius and his first baptism of fire on the field of battle at the disastrous Battle of Arausio, which took place in modern-day Southern France in 105 BC

***

Quintus Sertorius (123-73 BC) was populares politician and general, bitter opponent of the Sullan regime established after the end of Sulla's Civil War in 81 BC. Sertorius would stand alone in Hispania as the last of the major Marian leaders, holding out during the Sertorian War.

In this wider series we follow the life, times and battles of this remarkable Roman leader and general, as he took on the greatest power of the age, besting several generals sent by the Sullan Senate to oust him. So enjoy, share and if you're feeling really generous drop a like and comment!
