Chapter 5 Roman Legacy The Romans brought the skills of reading and writing to Britain. The written word was important for spreading ideas and also for establishing power.
Many words of Modern English have come from Latin. For example, the word cook comes from the Latin cocus, pound from the Latin pondo, wall from vallum, kitchen from coquina.
The names of many English towns are of Latin origin too. The Roman towns were strongly fortified and they were called castra, which means camps. This word can be found in such names as Chester, Winchester, Manchester, Leicester, Gloucester, Lancaster. Any English town today with a name ending in 'chester', 'caster' or 'cester' was once a Roman camp or city.
It is important to remember that the Romans brought many good things to Britain. They improved trade and the quality of life for many Britons. Roman towns showed to Britons that life could be comfortable and pleasant. The Romans brought milestones to Britain. These 2-3 metres high stones showed a quantity of miles from one place to another. Other things which the Romans brought to Britain are: lead pipes, roof tiles, cabbage, carrots, peas, figs, false teeth, cats, stinging nettles, roses, pansies, poppies, plums and cherries. The Romans left about twenty large towns of about 5,000 inhabitants, and almost one hundred smaller ones.
Roman laws meant that arguments could be settled peacefully. Some of the modern laws are based on Roman laws.
