Yes, Vardamar, I was goind to say that.

Boudica, a warrior queen of the Iceni (a sub tribe of the Celts) decided to try giving the ROmans a taste of their own medicine. She even sacked Londonium (London) which was then a somewhat large (in comparison) Roman outpost. And even though there were many men in her army, a lot of her warriors were Celtic women! (Eowyn actually sort of reminds me of Boudica.)

And then there is the frightening warrior queen Brunhilde. Who killed several of her husbands and was a feared warrior throughout barbaric Europe.
