[10] The Ardei and the Palarii, two other Illyrian tribes, made a raid on Roman Illyria, and the Romans, being otherwise occupied, sent ambassadors to scare them. When they refused to be obedient, the Romans collected an army of 10,000 foot and 600 horse to be despatched against them.
Y.R. 619
When the Illyrians learned this, as they were not yet prepared
B.C. 135
for fighting, they sent ambassadors to crave pardon. The Senate ordered them to make reparation to those whom they had wronged. As they were slow in obeying, Fulvius Flaccus marched against them. This war resulted in an excursion only, for I cannot find any definite end to it.
Y.R. 625
Sempronius Tuditanus and Tiberius Pandusa waged war
B.C. 129
with the Iapydes, who live among the Alps, and seem to
Y.R. 635
have subjugated them, as Lucius Cotta and Metellus seem
B.C. 119
to have subjugated the Segestani; but both tribes revolted not long afterward.
Y.R. 598
