It was refreshing to read that Roman Britain may not have been as much of an invasion as had been thought. The author uses good evidence to support his belief. I recommend this book to anyone who studied Roman Britain from the 1940's to the early '90s...it is an eye opener, but completely logical when thought about. If you have never studied it, this book gives a good start to early Roman Britain without previous bias. A good read. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
This book completely re-evaluates the evidence for, and the interpretation of, the rule of the kings of Late Iron Age Britain: Cunobelin and Verica. Within a few generations of their reigns, after one died and the other had fled, Rome's ceremonial centres had been transformed into the magnificence of Roman towns with monumental public buildings and Britannia examines these kings' long-lasting legacy in the creation of Britannia. Among the topics considered are: the links between Iron Age king of Britain and Rome before the Claudian conquest the creation of the towns of Roman Britain the different natures of 'Roman identity' the long lasting influence of the kings on the development of the province the widely different ways that archaeologists have read the evidence. Examining the kings' legacy in the creation of the Roman province of Britannia, the book examines the interface of two worlds and how much each owed to the other.
