Knowing that "BO" is a prefix along the lines of "MAC", "MC" and "O" in the Gaelic world, that "UDICCA" quickly becomes "Arthur, Ruler (as queen)".

That works as long as you know that "AD" becomes pronounced "UD" after "BO" or the other tribal and clan prefixes. It helps to know that "AD" is the English "Arthur", and "DIC" always means "Ruler/King/Dictator", and "A" is feminine, making the whole thing Queen.

No wonder King Arthur wasn't terribly concerned with who Guenivere was sleeping with.

I happened to be at Boudicca’s statue near Westminster bridge last Thursday evening after my ride on the London Eye. Will post pics later in week.
