A very plausible interpretation. I often think the resistance the Romans face in the North was something stubborn and long-term. Guerrilla warfare comprising indigenous warrior bands in the tens to hundreds or even low thousands, akin to the sort of warfare encountered between England and Scotland in better documented times. The Border reiving clans, their skirmishes and raids of the 15th and 16th centuries, spring especially to mind.
Very interesting talk. Thank you.
