Boadicea (also known as Boudica or Boudicca) was the head of the Iceni tribe, which was a Celtic tribe located in what is now East Anglia in England. She led an uprising against the Roman Empire in 60-61 AD in an attempt to defend her people from Roman oppression.
Boudica was the consort of Prasutagus, king of the Iceni, a tribe who inhabited what is now the English county of Norfolk and parts of the neighbouring counties of Cambridgeshire, Suffolk and Lincolnshire.
