Rome was well aware that Ireland existed as the Irish made depredations against Roman occupied Britain. Archeological evidence indicates that the Irish also served as mercenaries in the Roman legions. As the Roman hold on the larger Island ofBritain was always tenuous, a full fledged campaign against Ireland was never able to be realised.
