EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the moment of Julius Caesar's first invasion attempt on Britain in 55 BC, as the standard-bearer of the Tenth Legion wades to the shore near Deal. The historical significance of this event is immeasurable, as it marked Caesar's initial foray into the conquest of the British Isles, an endeavor that would ultimately lead to the Roman occupation of Britain and the establishment of a Roman province. The year was 55 BC, and Caesar, having recently been appointed Governor of Gaul by the Roman Senate, saw an opportunity to expand the Roman Empire's reach beyond the continent. He set sail from Boulogne with a fleet of 800 ships and an army of around 12,000 men, determined to subdue the tribes of Britain and add their lands to the Roman Empire. As the standard-bearer of the Tenth Legion, one of the four legions in Caesar's army, wades to the shore near Deal, the invasion force is met with the first signs of resistance. The waters are rough, and the beach is likely littered with obstacles, making the landing a challenging and dangerous proposition. But the determination of the Roman soldiers, led by their fearless commander, is unwavering. Despite initial successes, Caesar's invasion attempt was ultimately unsuccessful. The British tribes, led by the formidable warrior queen Boudicca, would mount a fierce resistance, forcing Caesar to withdraw his forces and abandon his plans for a full-scale conquest of Britain. But the seeds of Roman influence had been sown, and it would only be a matter of time before the Romans would return to claim the British Isles as their own. This powerful image, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of great historical significance and reminding us of the enduring legacy of Julius Caesar and the Roman Empire.
