Winchester (Old English: Wincestre) is a city and the county town of Hampshire, England. The city served as the capital of Wessex during the Anglo-Saxon Heptarchy.
History
Roman period
Winchester was settled by the Roman Empire in the year 70 as Venta Belgarum, named after a local Gaulish tribe named the Belgares. The settlement quickly became a hub for industry, education, and culture. Their pagan religion eventually transformed to Catholicism.[1]
