Excerpt from Myths, Scenes Worthies of Somerset Somerset forms the eastern extremity of the Western Peninsula, and it is that position which made it again and again a rallying point against oppression. Kent was the point by which Romans, Saxons, and Normans alike entered our island home, while Somerset has the more glorious memory of serving as a refuge for the oppressed nationality, whence it Issued out again refreshed and invigorated to continue the struggle for independence. The Romans, having encountered the Belgae in Gaul, seem to have avoided for many years meeting them in Britain, and when they did at last subdue the West, Bath became a British Pompeii, and was as fashionable a resort in the days of Roman British luxury as in the eighteenth century. Mag nificent baths, Roman villas, and country seats have been laid bare during modern excavations. How far our first myth, the legend of Bath, points to a still earlier civiliza tion it is difficult to say.
