An roman historian named Cassius Dio describes her as tall, with tawny hair hanging down to below her waist, a harsh voice and a piercing glare. He notes that she habitually wore a large golden necklace (perhaps a torc), a colourful tunic, and a thick cloak fastened by a brooch.
She was queen around in AD 60 or 61. ]]> 2017-03-18 18:12:42 UTC https://padlet.com/lilleirind123/ugf5o18jifg8/wish/160947025 lilleirind123 https://padlet.com/lilleirind123/ugf5o18jifg8/wish/160947073 No one know way he named king Nero of Rome as his heir together with his daughters, but a roman historian named Publius Cornelius Tacitus (56-117 CE) said that he did this as he thought that it would be an act of deference which he thought would place his kingdom and household beyond the risk of injury. ]]> 2017-03-18 18:13:31 UTC https://padlet.com/lilleirind123/ugf5o18jifg8/wish/160947073 lilleirind123 https://padlet.com/lilleirind123/ugf5o18jifg8/wish/160947117 The opposite happened.

Boudicca was chosen as the leader. It was said that she addressed her army with this words" It is not as a woman descended from noble ancestry, but as one of the people that I am avenging lost freedom, my scourged body, the outraged chastity of my daughters," ]]> 2017-03-18 18:15:09 UTC https://padlet.com/lilleirind123/ugf5o18jifg8/wish/160947167 lilleirind123 https://padlet.com/lilleirind123/ugf5o18jifg8/wish/160947197 The revolt left the ancient Roman cities of Camulodunum, Londinium and Verulamium in ruins and over 80,000 Roman citizens of Britain dead.
