## Image Caption

Under [Roman](https://www.worldhistory.org/disambiguation/Roman/) occupation, [Scotland](https://www.worldhistory.org/disambiguation/Scotland/) was an unwilling part of a huge [empire](https://www.worldhistory.org/empire/) whose system and ways were entirely alien to its native people. The price of resistance was slavery or [death](https://www.worldhistory.org/disambiguation/Death/), crushed beneath the imperial foot; this is a leg from a larger-than-life Roman statue. From Milsington, Scotland, 2nd century CE. (National Museum of Scotland, Edinburgh, UK)
