It is said that the Romans used the "pig's head" formation against Boudicca and her forces. This was a vee shaped formation in which the Romans pushed into the attacking enemy with a wall of shields. The enemy could get into the spaces between the "vees" and then the back ranks of the Romans would turn and dispatch the entrapped enemy. However, the Roman were victorious not only because of their tactics, but of their discipline and training. War was their business, they knew what to do and how to do it. Their training and skill is what enabled less than 10,000 men to defeat a mob of 230,000 and slaughter 80,000 with only 400 losses.

∙ 11y agoThe situation between Boudicca and the Romans evolved into one of history's biggest misunderstandings with dire consequences. Boudicca's husband was a client king of Rome and when he died, he left half of his kingdom to Rome and the other half to his wife and daughters. The problem was that the area was ruled by Rome under Roman law and had been for all the time that Prasutagus, Boudcca's husband, had ruled. Under Roman law women were extremely limited in what they could inherit from a man, especially a husband. Daughters could not inherit at all. When Boudicca discovered this, she stormed into the Roman HQ demanding her inheritance. She got a flogging for her boldness and her daughters, who accompanied her were raped.
