13 – Agricola




The British History Podcast show

Summary: We're going to talk about the governorship of Agricola, the Scots, the Irish, and I'm going to say "isthmus" an unreasonable number of times! Here's a map of Agricola's advance. HOWEVER the dates listed are the later of the two dates I mention in the podcast. Many historians think that these dates should be one year earlier. (That will make more sense to you after you listen to the podcast). NOTE: I made a comment that the legions raided on their way to Eboracum in the podcast. I meant to say that they raided once they got PAST Eboracum. Eboracum and Deva were, of course, Roman towns. At least they were at this point in time. So I think it's safe to assume they didn't raid their own people.
