2. THE STORY OF A WARRIOR QUEEN She ruled over that part of the country which Norfolk and Suffolk. She was a brave woman and she wasn’t afraid of the romans and she tried to get back what the romans stole from her she wanted to get back at the romans for beating her http://womenshistory.about.com/od/boudicca/p/boudicca.htm Sw

3. Who is Queen Boudiccia She was a british celtic warrior queen who led a revolt against the roman occupation. Queen Boudiccia was the wife of Prasutagus, who was head of the Iceni tribe in East England, in what is now Norfolk and Suffolk. Boudicca's army had counted on seizing Roman food stores when the tribes abandoned their own fields to wage rebellion, but Suetonius had strategically seen to the burning of the Roman stores. http://www.historic-uk.com/HistoryUK/HistoryofEngland/Boudica/ DS

4. WHAT DID QUEEN BOUDICCIA DO? The Warrior Queen who fought the might of Rome. And in a way she did get her revenge, as in 1902 a bronze statue of her riding high in her chariot. Boadicea then killed herself with poison so she would not fall into Roman hands. Boadicea's name means victorious or Victoria and in Victorian times she came to be viewed as a heroic symbol of Britain. http://www.royalty.nu/Europe/England/Boadicea.html SW

5. Queen Boudiccia She was huge of frame, terrifying of aspect, and with a harsh voice. A great mass of bright red hair fell to her knees. She wore a great twisted golden necklace, and a tunic of many colors, over which was a thick mantle, fastened by a brooch. She was a Celtic queen, wife, and mother is destined to remain in the gray shadows of history http://www.royalty.nu/Europe/England/Boadicea.html DS

6. Queen Boudicca’s final battle Boudicca's final battlefield is not known with any certainty. The Roman forces were encouraged to triumph. If they did not, they knew to expect to be impaled, to look upon their own entrails cut from their bodies, to be spitted on red-hot skewers, and to be melted in boiling water. Not a very nice prospect. The Iceni were poorly equipped and trained, unlike the Romans who had been practicing the art of death for centuries. http://www.whoosh.org/issue28/blanken2.html SW

7. Boudicca's Background Boadicea is simply the name given to her by the Roman historian Tacitus. Written histories of Boadicea, and of early Britain in general, are found in two classical manuscripts, which were most likely derived from the same original source. The historian Tacitus wrote his history only fifty years after the events of A.D. 60, and it was said that his father-in-law Agricola was able to give an eyewitness account of the rebellion. http://wordinfo.info/unit/4196/ip:6/il:E DS

8. Warrior Queen of the Iceni The exclusion of Boudicca in his will has led historians to speculate that, even when her husband was still alive, the Iceni queen held strong anti-Roman views. First, his wife Boudicea was scourged and his daughters outraged. All the chief men of the Iceni, as if Rome had received the whole country as a gift http://www.livescience.com/37061-boudicca.html SW

9. Boudicca’s success Boudicca was helped by the fact that at the time her rebellion was launched much of the Roman army in Britain was on the Isle of Anglesey, in Wales, destroying a Druid site at Mona. She raised an army, gaining supporting from another aggrieved tribe known as the Trinovantes. http://www.livescience.com/37061-boudicca.html DS

10. Queen B Boudicca was helped by the fact that at the time her rebellion was launched much of the Roman army in Britain was on the Isle of Anglesey, in Wales, destroying a Druid site at Mona. This meant that, for awhile, the rebels would only encounter small numbers of Roman troops. After her successes, Dio records, Boudicca’s army had swelled to 230,000 people, a figure that was probably exaggerated. http://www.livescience.com/37061-boudicca.html SW
