There are assumptions that before the time of the Romans, today's Switzerland was inhabited by the Celtic tribe of the Helvetians and the traces of these assumptions can be traced back to ancient Roman writings and Julius Caesar also wrote about them. There are only a few traditions and most of the writings about the Celts come from the Romans and the Helvetians probably inhabited the middle part of Switzerland and once fought against the Roman Empire and lost the battle and the survivors were then forced to leave their area and the Romans called the area later Helvetia. The lack of traditions about the existence leave many questions unanswered to this day and much is not clarified and often discussed and the old settlements were replaced by the Roman ones and because of the lack of evidence, people can largely only rely on the traditions of the ancient Romans. It is assumed that it was the goal of the Helvetians to emigrate to today's France and on the way they began to attack settlements that were allied with the Romans and that's why it probably came to the battles with the Romans and the survivors of this tribe were integrated into the Roman Empire and adapted to the culture. To this day, the topic is deeply anchored and the Swiss are firmly convinced that they are descended from this Celtic tribe and and the Latin name of the Swiss Confederation which was created at the beginning of the 19th century by Napoleon Bonaparte (1769 - 1821) is Confoederatio Helvetica and the abbreviation of it is CH. Napoleon was generally very connected with the emergence of today's Switzerland and created the basis for modern Switzerland and the well-known meaning Confoederatio Helvetica can be found today in many places in Switzerland and is and is a typical symbol on coins, stamps or other things.

If we see a few years before Aj, wars were fought in the same way through swords.
