{"id":"ex_fb60c9df7ma7s6ky","organisation":"zo47w8iu","title":"The Romans in Britain Course","description":"

6 JANUARY - 24 MARCH

From the invasion of AD 43 to the end of Roman rule almost four centuries later, Roman Britain was a world of conquest, rebellion, ambition, cultural change and everyday life.In this 12-part course, we’ll journey across Roman Britain to explore how Rome conquered and governed the province — and how the people who lived here responded, adapted and sometimes fought back. From military forts and Roman roads to villas, cities, religion, entertainment, slavery and death, we’ll uncover what life was really like in Britannia.Meet the people who shaped its history, from the rebellious Boudicca and the powerful Cartimandua to the emperors and soldiers who transformed the island. We’ll also explore the frontiers of Roman Britain, including the latest research into conflict at Ambleside Roman Fort, where Dr Reid and the Trimontium Trust have been investigating evidence of an attack on the garrison.

Led by Dr John Reid, Chairman of the Trimontium Trust and author of The Eagle and the Bear (Birlinn), this course offers a fascinating journey through the people, places and events that made Roman Britain one of the most intriguing provinces of the Roman Empire.
