Boudicca
Boudicca was the leader of a tribe called the Iceni, and they lived in the East of England. She rebelled against the invading Romans and was killed in battle. The Museum of London can answer your questions about her.
The St. Albans Museum has some paintings which show what artists think Boudica’s battle of Verulamium might have looked like (Verulamium was a Roman town near St. Albans).
Fun fact: there is a legend that Boudicca’s final resting place is under King’s Cross Station. Seeing as they found Richard III in a car park, we're sure anything is possible!
