Meet a leader of resistance to Rome in this short introduction to Britain’s early conquest period.
What this video covers
History Time looks at the circumstances surrounding Rome’s invasion of Britain and at Caratacus, who led resistance to the conquerors. Its focus is the earlier conquest of Britain rather than the later campaigns in Scotland. That wider setting makes it a useful companion to the story of Agricola’s northern advance. View it as an introductory historical narrative, then follow the related reading to distinguish different campaigns, commanders and phases of Roman expansion.
