Ok. So it looks like the Boudicca’s grave story is an April Fools joke. Sorry if it got your interest folks. I was had good and proper.
As these stories can go viral, I’ve deleted all of my comments and posts about it just in case anyone else had their hopes raised.
Just wishful thinking on my part I guess.
Should have remembered the date.
Ho hum.
I think I’ll just avoid reading anything else on the internet today 🙂
Ah well! I would have been intrigued if they had found her grave because a lot of current scholarly thought apparently doubts as to whether she even existed in the first place. Other than the famous tale there’s apparently very little, if anything, in the way of tangible evidence to suggest otherwise. I believe the same can be said about dear old Joseph and his musically revered coat. Not a single hieroglyph makes mention of him either.
