Roman Luxury Maritime Villas

Wolfgang Filser, archaeologist and associate professor at the University of Copenhagen joins us this week to talk about Roman Luxury Seaside Villas. We'll learn:

What was the ancient Roman equivalent of Malibu beach?

Where did the very wealthiest Romans escape to for their luxury retreats?

And how did their luxury maritime villas merge the land and the sea?

Tune in to this episode and find out the answer to all these questions and more, when I interview Wolfgang Filser, expert in Roman maritime villas. Since 2014 Wolfgang has lead excavations at the Cape of Sorrento near Naples, and today he's sharing some of his special insights into the seaside estates of the Roman elites.
