Where did Romans live? Episode 1: Part 1 - Peasant Farms and Rural Villages

Описание: Welcome to the first episode of my new history series, "Where Did the Romans Live?", Where each week, I shall explore the different places where Romans lived, from the Rural Roman countryside to the grandeur of Imperial palaces.

In this episode join me as we delve into life on a Roman Peasant Farm, the very basis of Roman society. Discover ancient Roman farmers' social, economic, and cultural aspects and learn more about one of the greatest civilisations to exist.

Kid-friendly, this video is suitable for classroom learning from primary school to university level.

I hope you enjoy this video and don't forget to like, share, and subscribe for more!

Part 2 will be coming shortly, and when it is available, I will link it here.

Happy learning!
