The Biggest Roman Handshake (1968x9)


: 01, 1968

The Roman palace at Fishbourne opened its gates to the public this morning. This incredible gift to a local British king was worth £1 million when it was built in A.D. 75. It is also the subject of a breakthrough in museum design and site preservation. Magnus Magnusson talks about this to Professor Barry Cunliffe, the archaeologist who has excavated the palace over the past seven years.
