Best Answer

The Cantabrian Wars or Cantabrian and Asturian Wars ((29-19 BC) were a rebellion by the Cantabri and Astures of north-western Hispania, the last independent peoples in Hispania, against Roman encroachment. The Astures joined the Cantabri in a common defence when three Roman legions were stationed near the Astura River (modern Esla River). The Astures came down from their mountains and positioned themselves near the Astura River, to fight the Roman camps.
