I am seriously thinking about trying to write something (“book” might be a bit ambitious at this stage) about the interesting bits of Ancient History. It will be less an academic work and more an outpouring of idiosyncratic opinion. I’ve already got a few suggestions from people: gladiators, Pompeii erruption, Christians and lions, Roman aristocracy, Salamis, and the Trojan horse. And obviously, me being me, Alexander is going to feature A LOT. However, I am still looking for more suggestions, which will be taken into consideration (no promises!).
This post is where I would like to collect them, because the ones I have at the moment are on a post-it note and are likely to get lost. Please use the comment facility below. Ta!
