How to Conduct a Manhunt Like Julius Caesar: Gallic Wars VI

How Caesar unleashed history's greatest manhunt and changed warfare forever. In 53 BCE, Julius Caesar mobilized 8 Roman legions for a single objective: hunting down one man across the forests of ancient France. This is the story of how that pursuit transformed both hunter and hunted. Caesar entered Gaul as a politician. Nine years later, he returned as a conqueror and an enemy of the state. His own account reveals how this transformation occurred…and why it still matters today. In this episode: • Inside Caesar's obsessive manhunt for Ambiorix: How a tribal king's clever ambush killed 7,000 Romans and sparked history's most expensive revenge mission. • Unprecedented insights into ancient Celtic life: Caesar's detailed observations of Gallic religion, society, and warfare. and what modern archaeology reveals about their accuracy. • Behind the scenes in Rome: How Caesar's hunt for Ambiorix intersected with the collapse of his alliance with Pompey, and set both men on a collision course for civil war. The scorched-earth campaign Caesar launched against Ambiorix's people would showcase his emerging philosophy: that exceptional individuals could - and should - reshape history through bold action. It was a belief that would ultimately lead him to cross the Rubicon, ending the Roman Republic he had once served.
