Questions on Constantius, Constantine and the Northern British Tribes
#14
The Romans killed those who resisted, they often raped and murdered, but Bouddicas revolt was the exception rather than the rule. For this reason the 'cultural assimilation/romanisation' model would only have resonance for elites - is there much evidence that Romans even bothered with farmers and rural communities other than to supply pig meat to the troops?

btw I am not basing my view on 'one line from Eusebius' Eusebius is fairly clear that Constantius was being taught by the British at the time and we can therefore establish that debate was prevalent.
