Britain BC

The most comprehensive vision of pre-Roman Britain ever to be shown on television portrays not crude, uncivilized savages but a highly developed, cultured people.

There's a general misconception that, before to the arrival of the Romans, Britain was a place of wild untamed tribes, united only in their ignorance and barbarity. Yet archaeology is now starting to show that the people who met Caesar's armies were in fact a sophisticated civilization who had as much to lose as gain from subjugation by Rome.
