Bastarnaeball was a ancient
Unidentified land stealer tribeball in
Moldovaball and
Ukraineball.
History[edit | edit source]
Bastarnaeball was first mentioned in 179 BC, as allies of
Macedonball.
Bastarnaeball first came into direct conflict wih
Romeball as a result of
Roman expansion in the lower danube in 75–72 BC, in an alliance with
Getaeball and
Sarmatiansball.
Later, they appear to have maintained friendly relations with Romeball during the first two centuries AD. This changed c. 180, when
Bastarnaeball participated in an invasion of
SPQRball's clay, once again in alliance with
Sarmatiansball and
Daciaball.
In the mid-3rd century, Bastarnaeball were part of a
Gothic-led grand coalition of lower Danube tribes that repeatedly invaded the Balkan provinces of
SPQRball.
Many Bastarnaeballs were resettled within the clay of
SPQRball in the late 3rd century.
Ethno-linguistic affiliation[edit | edit source]
The earliest
Greco-Roman historians said that the
Bastarnaeballs spoke
Celtic languages. In contrast, later historical sources imply that they spoke
Germanic languages, and could be considered
Germaniaballs. Like other balls who lived in the same geographical region,
Greco-Roman writers also referred
Bastarnaeball as
Scythianballs, but this was a general term, not a linguistic category.
