The town had been left in the hands of old Roman veterans, and this lack of manpower, combined with the prospect of destroying a major Roman town, gave the Iceni c force a chance to take revenge. Boudica s army fell on the poorly defended city and destroyed it, besieging the last defenders in the temple for two days before it fell. The 9th Roman Legion from the north attempted to relieve the city, but Boudica s Army ambushed the Legion and killed all but a few. None of the legion reached Colchester.

There were colonies of citizens and colonies of Latins, which differed in size, constitution, and region. Colonies of citizens were typically coastal and known as coloniae maritimae .
