What is now England, within the United Kingdom, was inhabited by Neanderthals
230,000 years ago. However, continuous human habitation dates to around 12,000
years ago, at the end of the last glacial period. The region has numerous remains
from the Mesolithic, Neolithic, and Bronze Age, such as Stonehenge and Avebury. In
the Iron Age, England, like all of Britain south of the Firth of Forth, was inhabited by
the Celtic people known as the Britons, but also by some Belgae tribes (e.g. the
Atrebates, the Catuvellauni and the Trinovantes). In AD 43 the Roman conquest of
Britain began; the Romans maintained control of their province of Britannia through
to the 5th century.
