Show transcript
Historians are not sure exactly when Christianity was introduced to Britain. In the 4th century CE, after the conversion of Constantine, it became increasingly popular among the elite. Historians know about this rise in popularity from various physical objects that have been found. At Hinton St Mary an early 4th century mosaic appears to show a portrait of Jesus. At Lullingstone, archaeologists unearthed the remains of a chapel within a Roman villa with Christian wall paintings.
