Ημερομηνία προβολής: Μάϊ 13, 1960

First transmitted in 1960, Sir Mortimer Wheeler embarks on an epic journey from Britain to Africa to examine the legacy of one of history’s greatest civilisations - the Roman Empire. At the height of its reign the Roman Empire held territory spanning from the Atlantic to the Tigris. The empire was a formidable political force that dominated the peoples of three separate continents, offering them a new and distinct culture and a civilization that allowed for freedom of travel.
