E26: Francesca and one of the greatest archeological finds of Ancient Rome: Herculaneum

Update: 2021-09-22

Description

Sometimes overshadowed by the more famous site of Pompei, Francesca and Rob talk about why Herculaneum is truly one of the greatest sites of Ancient Rome. Some would argue it has treasures that cannot be found anywhere else. Take an imaginative walk on this podcast from carbonised wooden doors and loaves of bread to crystallised skulls and learn how Herculaneum could be considered the "Positano" of ancient Rome.
