The Ninth Legion - ASMR History of Legio IX Hispana

The Ninth Legion (Legio IX Hispana, also sometimes called the "Lost Legion") had a long history. It served under command of Julius Caesar during the First Century BC, on the side of Octavian in the civil war against Mark Antony and Cleopatra, was sent to Spain, Germania, Pannonia and Britain. In Roman Britain, it fought rebellions, including the rebellion of Queen Boudica in which it narrowly avoided destruction. But its trace gets lost in Northern England in the early Second Century AD, which is highly unusual for such an important unit at a time when the Roman Empire was in good shape overall. Was it destroyed in Britain by Celtic tribes, sent to the Netherlands, or did it disappear in a later conflict, in Judea or Cappadocia? In this story, we look at the hypothesis and the historical context, which is a good opportunity to explore what Roman legions were, the conquest of Roman Britain and other aspects of Roman history.
