Celtic peoples occupied a broad arc of Europe from the Iberian Peninsula to Britannia during the first centuries BC, with cavalry forming a significant component of their warrior culture. Celtic horsemen, known for aggressive shock tactics and individual fighting ability, were encountered by Rome throughout the Gallic and Britannic campaigns and served as mercenary cavalry in Hellenistic armies. The Senonian Gauls famously sacked Rome in 386 BC; by the 1st century BC Celtic resistance to Roman expansion culminated in the campaigns of Julius Caesar against the Gauls.
