Camulogene

Camulogenus (* probably before 100 BC, † 52 BC) was a Celtic Commander. He became famous for his participation in the Battle of Lutetia.

Life

Camulogenus belonged to the Celtic tribe of the Aulerci and was a seasoned warrior, so that he (now Paris ) was elected despite his advanced age in the year 52 BC during the Gallic War, the leader of the Celtic warriors in Lutetia, the main town of the Parisii.

He was initially the Roman general Titus Labienus blocking the way, until it came to the battle of Lutetia. In her Camulogenus fought at the head of his troops, and fell there.

Today there is a street that bears his name in Paris.
