You know the Germans call him Hermann :), they build a large statue during the Germanic years of last century.

Yes! Hermann is probably his true Germanic name, which was "Romanized" as Arminius during his time as hostage of Rome. And i see which statue you are talking about (i'll talk about that in the next episode)! There is even a copy built by German immigrants in USA: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermann_Heights_Monument
I was wrong about the age, even earlier.
You could do a posting about our local hero Ambiorix, The old Belgians and Dutch, the horseman recruited into the Roman armies, interesting posts.
