The so-called battle of Arles was an episode of the Roman civil war of 407–415 in which several military confrontations took place between different opponents and with changing targets. The siege of the city of Arles was central to this. The fighting armies were on the one hand the army of Emperor Constantine III against his former general Gerontius (first phase of the conflict), and the imperial army of Honorius against an army under command of general Edobichus, consisting mainly of Germanic auxiliary troops (second phase). The conflict started at the end of 410–beginning of 411 and ended with a battle north of the city halfway through 411. Honorius' army triumphed.
