How Did Galicia Become Roman? | History of Lugo/Lucus 137 BC - 300 AD

As I explained in my previous videos on Iron Age Iberia, the Roman Conquest of Hispania took two centuries to complete, one of the last regions to be conquered being that in the very northwest of the peninsula, the modern province of Galicia and its neighbours. In this video I'll look at the Roman conquest of Galicia, the foundation of its most important city, Lucus Augusti, before exploring the pre-Roman, Celtic etymology and history of Lugo relating to the Celtic God Lugus/Lugos and some related deities in the Roman Pantheon and the Norse Pantheon.
