Agricola and The Germania

"e;The Agricola and The Germania"e; are two important historical works by Cornelius Tacitus, an ancient Roman Senator and historian. The Agricola is a biography of the Roman general Gnaeus Julius Agricola as well as a geographic and ethnographic history of Ancient Britain. "e;The Germania"e; is an ethnographic study of the people believed by Tacitus to be part of the ancient Germanic tribes. While not as famous as Tacitus's "e;Annals"e; or "e;Histories"e;, "e;The Agricola and The Germania"e; still remain as important first-hand documents of ancient history.
