The Iceni Introduction Part 1----- The fierce Iceni tribe inhabited an area corresponding roughly to the modern-day county of Norfolk. They rose in revolt against Roman rule under their queen Boudicca in 60 or 61 A.D., burning Camulodunum (Colchester), Londinium (London) and Verulamium (St.Albans) to the ground before being defeated in battle in the Midlands by the Roman Gaius Suetonius Paulinus.

The Iceni had important religious centres at Snettisham and at Thetford. The finest hoards of gold treasure found in Iron Age Britain, the Snettisham torcs, were unearthed in the territory of the Iceni. The Snettisham Hoard was unearthed in Norfolk between 1948 and 1973. The hoard consists of metal, jet and over 150 gold torc fragments, over 70 of which form complete torcs, dating from BC 70.

Though the hoards origin is unknown, it is of sufficient high quality to have been royal treasure of the Iceni. The Roman historian Dio Cassius, described Boudica wearing a magnificent gold neck ring. This was almost certainly a torc. Other hoards of elaborately decorated bronze chariot fittings indicate a love of conspicuous display by the nobles of the Iceni.

Cockley Cley, 3 miles South West of Swaffham, in Norfolk, has a reconstruction of an Iceni Village, which recreates the life of the Iceni in Britain just before the invasion of the Romans around 2000 years ago.
