  • The Roman Baths Complex Is a Site of Historical Interest in the English City of Bath, Somerset
    Aquae Sulis The Roman Baths complex is a site of historical interest in the English city of Bath, Somerset. It is a well-preserved Roman site once used for public bathing. Caerwent Caerwent is a village founded by the Romans as the market town of Venta Silurum. The modern village is built around the Roman ruins, which are some of the best-preserved in Europe. Londinium Londinium was a settlement established on the current site of the City of London around 43 AD. Its bridge over the River Thames turned the city into a road nexus and major port, serving as a major commercial centre in Roman Britain until its abandonment during the 5th century. Dere Street Dere Street or Deere Street is what is left of a Roman road which ran north from Eboracum (York), and continued beyond into what is now Scotland. Parts of its route are still followed by modern roads that we can drive today. St. Albans St. Albans was the first major town on the old Roman road of Watling Street. It is a historic market town and became the Roman city of Verulamium. St. Albans takes its name from the first British saint, Albanus, who died standing up for his beliefs. Jupiter Romans believed Jupiter was the god of the sky and thunder. He was king of the gods in Ancient Roman religion and mythology. Jupiter was the most important god in Roman religion throughout the Empire until Christianity became the main religion. Juno Romans believed Juno was the protector of the Empire. She was an ancient Roman goddess who was queen of all the gods.

    Year 5 & 6: Friday 23rd October 2020 Good morning everyone! It’s Friday…J Once today’s tasks are complete, it’s half term! Thank you for all of your hard work since we returned to school in September and for every piece of work you have completed this week. I hope you all have a lovely break and please stay safe – I can’t wait to see you all again on Monday 2nd November. Emotional well-being Today I want you to celebrate being you! Think about what makes you unique – be proud of the fact you are unique. You completed a piece of RE work earlier in the week and the general the me that came from it is that the world would be a pretty boring place if everyone was the same. Think of a good friend, or your group of friends… think of three ways that you are similar to each other and three ways that you are different. Don’t just focus on physical appearance – think about the things you enjoy, what you’re good at and what makes you special. Time for prayer and reflection We all need people in our lives who recognise our unique qualities and why we are special. We need these people to encourage us when we reach challenges in our lives – no matter how big or small. Take a moment to think about someone who does this for you and give thanks for them. Dear God, Thank you that I am special to you. Thank you that there is nobody else exactly the same as me.

In Britain, as in their other provinces, the Romans constructed a comprehensive network of paved trunk roads (i.e. surfaced highways) during their nearly four centuries of occupation (43 - 410 AD). This article focuses on the ca. 2,000 mi (3,200 km) of Roman roads in Britain shown on the Ordnance Survey's Map of Roman Britain.[1] This contains the most accurate and up-to-date layout of certain and probable routes that is readily available to the general public. The pre-Roman Britons used mostly unpaved trackways for their communications, including very ancient ones running along elevated ridges of hills, such as the South Downs Way, now a public long-distance footpath.

  • Female Travellers in Roman Britain: Vibia Pacata and Julia Lucilla
    FEMALE TRAVELLERS IN ROMAN BRITAIN: VIBIA PACATA AND JULIA LUCILLA Lien Foubert Though classical scholars have highlighted the central importance of mobil- ity in the Roman world, travel itself remains an understudied subject.1 Re- search on women’s travels in the Roman world is almost nonexistent; only the religious travels of Christian women in Late Antiquity have attracted much scholarly attention.2 Scholars have overlooked numerous examples of travelling women in the rst centuries of the Roman Empire, a period in which travelling became more common. Women of various social strata commemorated their journeys in gra ti, letters, and votive objects, which constitute a fascinating collection of sources. When scholars do include women in general overviews of mobility in the Roman period, this often occurs in an anecdotal manner, or by focusing on the exceptional character of the examples selected. The present article emphasizes the importance of women’s travels for a better understanding of the public image of women during the Roman imperial period. Since an exhaustive study of the subject is far beyond the scope of a short article, the focus will lie on the province of Roman Britain. On the basis of an in-depth study of two female travellers in Britannia, Vibia Pacata and Julia Lucilla, the article aims to answer the following question: what inuence did travel have on the public identity of women, and to what extent did these female travellers to Britannia play an active role in shaping that identity?3 1 Recent studies that focus on mobility in the ancient world include Horden-Purcell (2000) and Moatti (2004).
