The Roman Invasion of Britain, AD 43: riverine, wading and tidal studies place limits on the possible locations of the two-day river battle and beachhead
Creators
Description
New location information derived from an amalgam of river, wading, tidal and relative sea-level data leads to the following conclusions: the Medway was the only river capable of matching Cassius Dio's account of the two-day river battle, and the Roman beachhead in AD 43 was on the Kent coast, probably either at Faversham, the mouth of the Great Stour in the Wantsum Channel, or a lagoon north-west of Deal.
