Episode 1: The Herculaneum Scrolls — A Library Buried Alive
In 79 AD, Mount Vesuvius erased entire Roman cities from history.
But in Herculaneum, something unexpected survived.
Beneath layers of volcanic ash lies the only complete ancient library ever discovered—nearly 2,000 carbonized scrolls, frozen in time and unread for centuries. These were not public records or imperial propaganda, but a private philosophical collection—used, studied, and lived by a quiet Roman household.
In this first episode of Daring Curiosity, we explore:
The city of Herculaneum and how it differed from Pompeii
The Villa of the Papyri and its lost library
What the scrolls contain—and why they mattered
How philosophy functioned as a way of living, not an abstraction
Why some ideas disappear without ever being disproven
This is not a story about destruction.
It’s a story about interruption—and what happens when wisdom depends on fragile conditions.
Each episode this season will uncover new archaeological findings and follow them beyond discovery—asking how ancient ways of thinking might still speak to modern life.
Some ideas aren’t buried because they failed.
They’re buried because the world moved too fast to hear them.
