- Caratacus (Brythonic *Caratācos, Middle Welsh Caratawc; Welsh Caradog; Greek Καράτακος; variants Latin Caractacus, Greek Καρτάκης) was a first-century British chieftain of the Catuvellauni tribe, who led the British resistance to the Roman conquest. Before the Roman invasion Caratacus is associated with the expansion of his tribe's territory. His apparent success led to Roman invasion, nominally in support of his defeated enemies. He resisted the Romans for almost a decade, mixing guerrilla warfare with set-piece battles, but was unsuccessful in the latter. After his final defeat he fled to the territory of Queen Cartimandua, who captured him and handed him over to the Romans. He was sentenced to death as a military prisoner, but made a speech before his execution that persuaded the Emperor Claudius to spare him. The legendary Welsh character Caradog ap Bran and the legendary British king Arvirargus may be based upon Caratacus. Caratacus's speech to Claudius has been a common subject in art.
- Caratacus, also spelled Caractacus, Caradog, Caradoch or Caratach was a first-century chieftain of the Catuvellauni tribe in what is now England. He led a resistance movement against the Romans in AD 50-51. Caratacus' fighting technique included conventional battlefield warfare (unsuccessful) and guerrilla fighting (successful). After his final defeat (at an unknown location) he fled to the territory of Queen Cartimandua, who captured him and handed him over to the Romans. He was taken to Rome and sentenced to death as a military prisoner, but made a speech before his execution that persuaded the Emperor Claudius to spare him. He lived out the remainder of his life in Italy, and his death is unrecorded.
