It has been suggested that this indicates that Verulamium was at that time still an emerging town and that there were not many 'Roman' buildings for the rebels to destroy. I'm not sure how far I go along with this. I would have thought that, if the rebels wanted to show the inhabitants which side their bread was buttered, they would have destroyed everything. Perhaps they made their point by burning the properties of the local elite outside the town or maybe there was something going on that we do not understand.
