History of London

As a transportation hub and an important city, London has a history of nearly two thousand years. The earliest origin of London is not exactly recorded in history. Many people think that London was founded by the Romans. But archaeological research shows that before the arrival of the Romans, there were traces of human farming, living and burying the dead in London.

By the first century AD, the Romans, under the leadership of Emperor Claudius, formally conquered what later became Britain in 43 AD. They built a settlement on the Thames and named it "London". Later, the Romans built a wall here, and gradually established a larger city in the area surrounded by the wall.
