History is written by the conquerors – and the Romans conquered other peoples from Africa to the middle East to ancient Britain. But what was it like to live on the fringes of the empire, under Roman rule? For one evening, grab a glass of wine and try to find your way through the porticoes of power – can you subvert your imperial overlords? Unravel your story in our choose-your-own adventure.
Libraries and museums across the world are filled with the remnants of the Greek and Roman past: objects, manuscripts, literary works, papyri, inscriptions… not to mention copious amounts of ink spilt on understanding them. But access to this classical past has not always been equal – and, in fact, a classical education was historically the preserve of the rich. So who owns the past?
