Claudius Civilis Preaches Revolt Against Rome

Gaius Julius Civilis (AD 25 – c. 1st century; erroneously also Claudius Civilis) was the leader of the Batavian rebellion against the Romans in 69 AD. His nomen shows that he (or one of his male ancestors) was made a Roman citizen (and thus, the tribe a Roman vassal) by either Augustus or Caligula.
