Comment on Roman education program working as intended
PugJesus@piefed.social 4 days agoThat story is most likely Roman propaganda to justify their loss against a “barbaric” culture. In recent history its a story mostly used by faschist to tell a tale about how strong the germanic tribes used to be. I think its highly questionable to tell the story as historic fact.
fucking what
Neither Arminius nor the Battle of Teutoburg Forest are in dispute in modern academia.

The battle is not disputed. If Arminius the barbarian “prince” had the role in the story or even existed is highly questionable.

… no, it really fucking isn’t. Arminius is accepted almost universally, possibly literally universally, as a historical figure in academia.
