Vercingetorix, Cativolcus and Ambiorix

Vercingetorix was the best known, and perhaps the most able, leader of the Gallic opposition to Caesar during the Gallic War of 58-51 B.C.

Cativolcus (d.53 B.C.) was one of two kings of the Eburones tribe during the Gallic War.

Ambiorix (fl.54-53 B.C.) was one of the more successful leaders of the resistance to Caesar during the Gallic Wars, winning one of the few clear cut Gallic victories of the war when he destroyed a Roman legion at Aduataca.
