Life in
Roman Leicester
Explore Roman Leicester with us
Ratae Corieltauvorum (Roman Leicester) is one of the most excavated urban centres in Britain, and archaeological evidence shows us that it was a vibrant multicultural centre from its earliest phases.
This website provides a wealth of information, activities and resources which allow you to explore the nature of everyday life in Ratae and the wider Roman world.
Our website is inspired by recent archaeological discoveries in Leicester carried out by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) and informed by the research of the School of Archaeology and Ancient History (SAAH), University of Leicester.
