| There are a fair number of articles concerning Roman Britain to be found
on-line, notably those at the CBA website, and UK newspapers, particularly the Daily Telegraph, The Times and the The Guardian
also hold reports of interest in their on-line archives. (Please note

The Council for British Archaelogy |
In recent years the CBA Journal British Archaeology has featured several articles focussing on aspects of Roman Britain. The journal is published in full on the CBA website two months after it appears in print - the following list of articles includes links to the features section of the relevant issues. Some of the articles, such as Martin Henig's views on the Roman invasion, give rise to correspondence - which can be found in the 'Letters' section of subsequent issues. |
