Boudicca or Boadicea was a queen of the Iceni tribe in Celtic Britain. After her daughters were raped by the Romans she went on a rampage, slaughtering four Roman legions and razing (burning) the Roman city of Londinium. She killed every Roman citizen she found in the city and threw their heads into The Thames. One of the skulls can be seen on display in the Museum of London.
She is usually show riding her chariot, which had scythes on it. Some people regard her as an early feminist, bu the truth is she was just out for revenge.
