I found the History Channel Show ''Warrior Queen Boudica'' as this a great show of the Iceni Celts vs the Romans in 60 A.D for control of Britain. The Celts allowed women to be leaders of their clans which was unheard of to the Romans and they looked down on the Celts because of this.

Iceni Celtic Queen Boudica vs Roman Governor General Seutonius.

Enjoy as it's between 1 and 1 1/2 hour show !!!!!!!!!

That was interesting in that she prayed to the Celtic Goddess Andraste before going into battle.

I love the statue of her in London.

She is a heroine of mine. She took over for her husband who was killed.

What's really odd is that if you dig down 6 to 7 feet in the ground in certain area's in London and Colchester you can easily find the ash where she burned both cities to the ground in 61 A.D. and yet the final battle near Mancetter, England where General Seutonius beat her and where some 70,000 to 80,000 were killed and yet they have never found one bone from that battle.
