This would show that there was contact from a very early period in British history, but we don’t see any evidence for significant overseas trade until the Iron Age. Evidence such as the Amesbury Archer shows this, as that particular person came from the Alps region of France and Switzerland. We know that there had been some contact with the continent, earlier during the Bronze Age, with people migrating from teh continent into the British Isles. This article will look at periods of the Iron Age in which there was trade going both ways across the channel and the evidence that indicates this. There was considerable amount of contact and trade with continent in Iron Age Britain from the 7th century bC onwards, right through to the Roman Invasion of 43AD. This article is going to investigate the possibility there was trade with the continent prior to the Roman invasion and any evidence that may indicate this.
