Well advanced British \"Town\" predating Romans?

[kazeryu]

Is this article implying that the Britons decided to start building gridded towns, drinking wine and using olive oil and garum entirely independently of their continental neighbours in Gaul, dominated by Rome for over a century? :-?

In fact, these findings would appear to be further evidence of Romanisation in Britain prior to the Claudian invasion, rather than of the native genius of the Britons themselves...

I was wondering about your latter statement myself, but I didn't have the knowledge in your former statement to back it up so I kept quiet... :oops:
