Romano-British
Imperial province culture
Romano-British describes the culture, people, and period of Britain under Roman occupation, roughly 43 to 410 CE.
The term applies to the hybrid civilization that emerged as native Britons absorbed Roman customs, architecture, and language: Romano-British pottery, Romano-British settlements.
It also describes archaeological finds from this era: a Romano-British villa.
