Intercourse Google and the litter it's riding in on -- it certainly is too good to let its feet touch the ground.

Caesar, Bellum Gallicum 1.29, says that documents were found which gave the totals of the Helvetii and other tribes--262,000 Helvetii and 106,000 from six other tribes for a total of 368,000. The Helvetii who returned after they were defeated by Caesar numbered 110,000, according to a census Caesar had taken.
