Camillus was named Roman dictator for the fifth time in 367 BC. He actively organized the defence of Rome. Through the commands of Camillus, the Roman soldiers were provided with protective armour against the Gallic main attack: the heavy blow of their swords.
How did the Romans enter VEII?
In order to break into the city, the Romans dug a tunnel through the soft tufa rock on which the city was built. Livy describes the scene with the Veientines holed up in their city, the main Roman force encamped outside and a second force set to attack from within via the tunnel.
What did Camillus promise to Apollo?
As well, he celebrated his triumph over Veii so much that his fellow Romans viewed him as comparing himself to the gods and he went back on his promise to offer a tenth of the spoils of the conquest to Apollo. His next turn as army commander was against a resurgent Falerii.
