What They Don’t Say About the Battle of Mons Graupius (83 AD)

The Battle of Mons Graupius, fought in 83 AD, was a decisive clash between the Roman army led by General Agricola and the Caledonian tribes under Calgacus. It marked the climax of Agricola’s campaign in northern Britain, where Roman forces had been pushing further into Caledonia for years. As one of the most examined ancient battles in British history, Mons Graupius offers a rare glimpse into Rome’s northernmost ambitions and early Scottish resistance. Although the exact location remains uncertain, a probable site for the battle is thought to be Bennachie in Aberdeenshire, where the dramatic landscape may have witnessed this legendary confrontation. 🔔 Please Subscribe to the Channel If you enjoy these wee History Videos 🙂 Support The Channel On Patreon -   / nicoexplores   __________________________________________ 🔗 Equipment Used👇🏻 📍RØDE Wireless Go II Microphone https://amzn.to/4dqGo1O 📍RØDE NT-USB Professional Microphone https://amzn.to/4dyNLVg 📍Sony Alpha 7 III Full-Frame Mirrorless Camera with sony 28-70mm f/3.5-5.6 Zoom lens https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07B4R8QG... 📍DJI Mavic 3 Pro Drone https://amzn.to/4dnoFbG __________________________________________ 📚 Information Sources 👇 Mons Graupius AD 83: Rome’s Battle at the Edge of the World (2010) Tacitus, Mattingly, H.
