Show Notes
If you want to learn about the Ancient Mediterranean but don't know where to start, Ancient History 101 is the podcast for you. Expert guests guide us through a new topic every week with a back-to-basics approach that covers all the essentials. We invite you to join your host Alexandra Sills and her very clever friends as they discuss everything that is entertaining, compelling and even grotesque about the worlds of ancient Greece, Rome and their neighbours. We have military history, biographies of famous figures, events that changed the ancient world, deep dives into religion, culture and politics and much much more. A comprehensive college curriculum, just without the campus! Find us online at www.ancienthistory101.org Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
