The Lusitani are designated by Strabo as “the greatest of the nations of Iberia, and the one most frequently and longest engaged in war with the Romans,” a distinction which, certainly, not even the Celtiberians could dispute with them. The incidents of that war seem to prove that though the Lusitani formed a compact state, under one national government.

"The Lusitanian ... They have a small shield two feet in diameter, concave in front and suspended from the shoulder by means of thongs (for it has neither arm-rings nor handles) Besides this shields they have a dirk or a butchers knife (actually a falcata). Most use linen cuirasses; few wear chain-wrought cuirasses and helmets with tree crests helmets but the rest wear helmets made of sinews. The foot soldiers wear grooves also and each soldiers have several javelins; and some also made use of spears and the spears have bronze heads. "
