Summary/Abstract: In contemporary historiography, the term Bellum Pannonicum implies Tiberius’s conquest of southeastern Pannonia, that is the area between the rivers Drava and Sava, the basin of the rivers Sana, Vrbas and Bosna to the south of the Sava River. This paper accepts the opinion of the contemporary historiography that Tiberius’s war (Bellum Pannonicum) was waged for only 2 years – 12 and 11 BC. It accordingly takes into account the ethno-geographical understanding of Pannonia in the context of the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The paper particularly focuses on the Breuci and Osseriates as two indigenous communities who populated the majority of Bosnian Posavina. By analyzing the texts of Greco-Roman authors, the paper presents the motives and causes of Tiberius’s Pannonian war. The paper aims to present an overview of the military conquest and point out the consequences of Tiberius’s military campaign in Bosnian Posavina.
