That's why we snuggled up to our old buddy Tacitus.

Confusing isn't it!
Then again, you can add to that, that the problem has always been there & still is. Most languages will have different names for the same peoples.
It depends who is writing the history.
That said it is a bit of a oddity that Germanics, supposedly predominantly blond ( 'Aryan' or is that another red herring? ) should be confused with the predominantly raven haired Celts.
Then again my historical knowledge is sketchy at best. :hmmm:

I purchased the "Battle of the Teutoburg Forest" by Peter S Wells in June.
Though I'm yet to have read it, must do so soon.

Not sure what you mean here, but if you are referring to BI's hordes... then no.
Here is a link to some interesting reading;

and

Some tend to think that when the Cimbri, in their ill-fated battle against Marius, chained themselves together in the front ranks, was a horde. It was a disasterous decision, when two or more men fell, the rest were weighed down and like sitting ducks.
