Today we have continued to find out more about Boudicca as part of our Roman topic. We had to read a description of her that someone else had written and draw a picture of what we thought she looked like. There were many different interpretations!
‘She was very tall.
She looked terrifying with a fierce glint in her eye. Her voice was
harsh. A great mass of startling bright yellowish red hair hung down
to her hips. Around her neck she had a huge torque of gold. She
wore a dress of many colours with a thin cloak over it pinned
together with a brooch.’
Cassius Dio (100 years after Boudicca’s reign)
