After several years of facing guerrilla warfare and attempts at subjugating the people of the Lowlands, The Roman General Agricola arrived at the far north of Britain, thus forcing the native Caledonii to do battle at Mons Graupius. Their leader, according to the Roman historian Tacitus, was Calgacus, and the speech attributed to him in his book on the life of Agricola, described the Caledonians in a grand speech as the ’the most distant dwellers upon the earth, the last of the free’
