Julius Caesar, waging the Gallic War, now …

Years: 55BCE - 55BCE

Julius Caesar, waging the Gallic War, now builds a great bridge across the Rhine (between present Koblenz and Andernach) to punish the Sicambri, after which he withdraws and destroys the bridge, accomplishing little, but gaining great publicity.

Claudius Ptolemy located the Sicambri, together with the Bructeri Minores, at the most northern part of the Rhine and south of the Frisii who inhabit the coast north of the river.

Strabo located the Sicambri next to the Menapii, “who dwell on both sides of the river Rhine near its mouth, in marshes and woods. It is opposite to these Menapii that the Sicambri are situated".

This information places the Sicambri near the lower Rhine in or near what is now called the Netherlands.
