Olyndicus (?-170 BC), also known as Olonicus, was a
Celtiberians war chief who led a rebellion against Rome, fighting against the
praetor Lucius Canuleius Dives and his troops, in the province of Hispania Ulterior. According to
Florus, he was a great leader, and a cunning and daring warrior.
[Florus, Epitomae, 1.33.13]
Olyndicus was said to have behaved like a prophet and to have led his troops wielding a magical silver lance, sent to him by the gods from the sky.
