Londinium under Fire

Hi guys,


I have found some interesting information about the destruction of Londinium around the year 60 AD.

The Celtic Queen
There was a Celtic Queen that named herself Boudicca. She was hard and she hated everything that was Roman. When the Romans build a city in her territory she had enough of the Roman Medling.                      

The Attack
Flames and flames!
In the year 60 AD she attacked the city. The Romans weren't prepared for a big Celtic attack. So the Celtics won the battle and plundered the whole city. There are found several places with fire debris, so we can conclude that Boudicca had put the city on fire when she leaved.

Rehabilitation
After the big attack of Boudicca the Romans send a big army to Britain. The Romans defeated Boudicca and they Rebuilt there city. Londinium soon began growing again and in the year 140 AD the city had over 45.000 inhabitants.

I hope you guys found this as intresting as I found it. There is coming more soon! Please keep returning to our blog.
