1. Meurig ap ADMINIUS - Abt 25 B.C. in Cornwall, England (Britain)


Judging by his coins, Adminius had control of Kent at this time.

According to Suetonius, in 40 B.C. Adminius was banished from Britain by his father
and he sought refuge with the Roman emperor Caligula who treated
this as if the entire island had submitted to him.

Other historians tells us that Caligula prepared an invasion of Britain,
but abandoned it and ordered his soldiers to attack the waves and gather
seashells as the spoils of victory.
