What Was Life Actually Like In Ancient Roman London? - EndtheMadnessNow - 03-12-2024

Found this short presentation quite interesting. Especially the ancient Londinium "financial document" and the mystic esoteric cult of Mithra artifacts.



Quote:Join us on an immersive journey through the ancient streets of Roman London. We explore archaeological finds that offer glimpses into daily life, from deciphered wax tablets revealing trade dealings to artifacts like spearheads, arrowheads, and fragments of armor. London's Roman history traces back to around 50 AD, when a mercantile trading post was established on a gravel terrace above the river Thames. At the time, this area was a floodplain surrounded by thick woods. But this muddy valley would eventually become one of the greatest cities in the world.
