Archaeologists have revealed the remains of what they say was a "high status" woman of African origin who lived in York during Roman times. ...Her grave dates back to the second half of the 4th Century. She was buried with items including jet and elephant ivory bracelets, earrings, beads and a blue glass jug. She also had a rectangular piece of bone, which is thought to have originally been mounted in a wooden box, which was carved to read, "Hail, sister, may you live in God'. (more).

Idren have been to 'old' York, a city in northern England. Actually really beautiful countryside; a little younger than London (1ad), it was a roman provincial capital (slave-based civiliesashun) with lots of church history too (humpty-dumpty-style). Sisters carried the Word despite bby back then too.
