Tasgetius
Tasgetius, the Latinized form of Gaulish Tasgetios or Tasgiitios (d. 54 BC), was a ruler of the Carnutes, a Celtic polity whose territory corresponded roughly with the modern French departments of Eure-et-Loir, Loiret, and Loir-et-Cher. Julius Caesar says that as Roman proconsul he made Tasgetius king in reward for his support during the Gallic Wars.〔Julius Caesar, ''Bellum Gallicum'' 5.25.2. Although Tasgetius is conventionally called a "king," Caesar uses verbal phrases in reference to his rule rather than the noun ''rex'': his ancestors ''regnum obtinuerant'', "had held the kingship," and Tasgetius was in his third year of ruling at the time of his murder: ''tertium iam hunc annum regnantem''.〕 His reign would have begun in late 57 BC, following Caesar's campaign against the Belgic ''civitates'' in northern Gaul that year; it ended with his assassination in 54 BC. The overthrow of a king appointed by Caesar was one of the precipitating events that led to the pan-Gallic rebellion of 52 BC under the Arvernian leader Vercingetorix.〔Stephen L. Dyson, "Native Revolts in the Roman Empire," ''Historia'' 20 (1971), p. 242.〕
