Ancient Rome: Videos, Lectures & Seminars

 Studying ancient Rome?

Here's a great YouTube playlist from the American Institute for Roman Culture that offers videos for every aspect of Roman culture.

The  American Institute for Roman Culture website includes seminars and lectures. Some of the past lectures have included The Seven Hills of Rome,  the Myths of Rome's Foundation,  and the Deification of the Roman Emperor. Some of the lectures are geared towards kids like "Daily Life in Ancient Rome for Kids."

The videos on their YouTube channel are short, from 12 to 23 minutes, and cover everything from the origins of Rome to the end of the Republic.

A series of short (2 to 4 minutes) videos introduce you to Roman monuments such as the coliseum,  the Temple of Venus and Roma,  the Basicila of Neptune, and the Bernini Obelisk.

Another series of videos introduce you to Roman daily life.  Most of these are short except for the one about the mobs and crowds of people in Rome, which runs about 30 minutes.
