405 "Caractacus, the Roman form, is a simple change from Karatakos, his actual "

407 "remembered as a fierce defender of Britain against the Romans after their "
408 "invasion in 43 A.D. Son of King Cunobelin of the Catuvellauni tribal "
409 "confederation, Karatakos fought for nine years against the Romans with "
410 "little success, eventually fleeing to the tribes in Wales, where he was "
411 "defeated decisively. Finally he entered Northern Britain, where was handed "
412 "over to the Romans. Taken to Rome, Karatakos was allowed to live by the "
413 "Emperor Claudius and died in Italy. Tradition states he converted to "
414 "Christianity when his wife did, but there is nothing known of this as "
415 "definite. Probably more notable is the matter that he was allowed to live "
416 "once captured. Roman policy was typically to have such men killed in public "
417 "displays to celebrate. Karatakos was brought before the Emperor and Senate "
418 "at his request to explain himself. What he said is not known for certainty, "
419 "but Tacitus applies to him a famous speech..."

424 "Kunobelinos (perhaps better known by the latinized form of Cunobelin) was a "
425 "powerful ruler of the Catuvellauni. He was referred to by Romans as the King"
426 " of the Britons. His domains extended around the city of Kamulodunon (known "
427 "as Camulodunum), modern day Colchester. The Roman defeat in the battle of "
428 "Teutoburg Forest (Germania) allowed Kunobelinos to conquer a neighboring "
429 "tribe, the Trinovantes, who were Roman allies and couldn't receive Roman "
430 "aide. Kunobelinos seems to have been indifferent to the Romans. He traded "
431 "with them freely, but had few qualms subjugating known Roman allies, and "
432 "even sent his youngest son Adminius as a fosterling to be educated in Roman "
433 "Gaul. This accounted for Adminius's friendships among the Romans. Adminius "
434 "was given lordship over the Cantaci, who inhabited Kent, by his father. This"
435 " area was the prime area of Roman influence and trade in Britain, and "
436 "Kunobelinos shrewdly observed his youngest son's friendship with powerful "
437 "Roman and Gallo-Roman politicians and traders would be of use administrating"
438 " the region. His other sons though had no love for the Romans. When "
439 "Kunobelinos died of disease, he was replaced by his son Togdumnos, who "
440 "arrested, executed, or expelled numerous Roman sympathizers. These included "
441 "his own brother Adminius, and the deposed Atrebates king, Verica, who "
442 "appealed to their connections in the Roman Empire for aide in recovering "
443 "their lands. Togdumnos died in battle with the Romans, and was subsequently "
444 "replaced by his brother, Karatakos. It is an irony that it was his third son"
445 " that initially invited this Roman reprisal. Kunobelinos in his own time "
446 "though was possibly one of the greatest of all British kings. He conquered "
447 "the great majority of the southern half of Britain (his coins were being "
448 "minted as far as the borders of what would become Wales). He started ruling "
449 "over only four minor tribes in a confederation, the Catuvellauni, and ended "
450 "up achieving recognition as king of Britain. This recognition was so great "
451 "that tribes in Cambria even came to assist his sons against the Romans and "
452 "their British allies, and Kunobelinos was held up by the post-Roman Britons "
453 "as one of their great heroes; a conqueror and uniter of petty kingdoms, "
454 "something the post-Roman Britons or Romano-British sorely needed."

459 "Ammianus Marcellinus described how difficult it would be for a band of "
460 "foreigners to deal with a Celt if he called in the help of his wife. For she"
461 " was stronger than he was and could rain blows and kicks upon the assailants"
462 " equal in force to the shots of a catapult. Boudicca, queen of the Iceni, "
463 "was said to be 'very tall and terrifying in appearance; her voice was very "
464 "harsh and a great mass of red hair fell over her shoulders. She wore a tunic"
465 " of many colors over which a thick cloak was fastened by a brooch. Boudicca "
466 "had actually at first been a Roman ally, along with her husband, Prasutagus,"
467 " king of the Iceni. Prasutagus had been a close Roman ally after a brief "
468 "uprising, respected as being forethinking even by his former enemies, now "
469 "allied Romans, and free to rule his kingdom as their native tradition "
470 "dictated, except in one case. Prasutagus, realizing he was going to die, "
471 "agreed upon a will with his wife and subordinates; his daughters would "
472 "inherit the physical running of the territory, under Boudicca's stewardship "
473 "until they were adults, and the Emperor of Rome would have overlordship, "
474 "collecting taxes and being allowed to request military aide. Much the same "
475 "situation as he already held. The problem lay in that the Romans did not "
476 "recognize female heirs, and thus asserted, upon Prasutagus's death, that "
477 "only the Emperor's claim to the kingdom of Icenia was valid. They further "
478 "noted it was regular Roman practice to only allow a client kingdom to be "
479 "independent for the lifetime of the initial king, such as had occurred in "
480 "Galatia. The Empire formally annexed the kingdom, and began extracting harsh"
481 " taxes immediately, citing that Prasutagus was indebted to the Romans, "
482 "having taken several loans during his lifetime that he had failed to repay. "
483 "Boudicca's complaint about this treatment and the defiance of her deceased "
484 "husband's will was met with brutality; Roman soldiers flogged her, and her "
485 "daughters, only children, were raped. Boudicca and her subjects were "
486 "infuriated at the disgrace done to their queen and the children. With the "
487 "Roman governor of Britain engaged with the druids in Cambria, now Wales, "
488 "Boudicca was able to attract more followers from outside the Iceni, as they "
489 "were hardly the only British tribe growing rapidly disillusioned with the "
490 "Romans. Boudicca and her army laid waste to three cities, routed a Roman "
491 "legion, and called on the memory of Arminius, a German who had routed the "
492 "Romans from his lands, and their own ancestors who had driven off Caesar "
493 "near a century earlier. Boudicca was defeated by a major tactical blunder in"
494 " the Battle of Watling Street, leading to much of her force being "
495 "slaughtered as they could not withdraw to safety. Boudicca herself escaped, "
496 "and then slew her daughters, and then herself, to avoid further shame at "

857 "Brennus is the name which the Roman historians give to the famous leader of "

859 "Monmouth, the cleric who wrote “History of the Kings of Britain”, Brennus "
860 "and his brother Belinus invaded Gaul and sacked Rome in 390 B.C., 'proving' "
861 "that Britons had conquered Rome, the greatest civilization in the world, "
862 "long before Rome conquered the Britons. We know from many ancient sources "
863 "which predate Geoffrey that Rome was indeed sacked, but in 387 not 390, and "
864 "that the raid was led by a man named Brennos (which was latinized to "
865 "Brennus), but he and his invading horde were Gallic Senones, not British. In"
866 " this episode several features of Geoffrey's editing method can be seen: he "
867 "modified the historical Brennus/Brennos, created the brother Belinus, "
868 "borrowed the Gallic invasion, but omitted the parts where the Celts seemed "
869 "weak or foolish. His technique is both additive and subtractive. Like the "
870 "tale of Trojan origin, the story of the sack of Rome is not pure "
871 "fabrication; it is a creative rearrangement of the available facts, with "
872 "details added as necessary. By virtue of their historical association, Beli "
873 "and Bran are often muddled with the earlier brothers Belinus and Brennus "
874 "(the sons of Dunvallo Molmutius) who contended for power in northern Britain"
