Inhabitants of Londinium


The BBC News website has an article about a recent project looking at the ethnic mix and other features of the population of Roman London. Being the BBC it, inevitably, gives it a bit of a politically correct slant, but it is nevertheless an interesting piece of research:


** London ethnically diverse from start **
A DNA study confirms London was an ethnically diverse city from its very beginnings, BBC News has learned.

The piece can be viewed at  http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-34809804
