Welcome to the first episode of Let's Dig Deeper Season 3!

We're kicking off this season with a series of special episodes - The Rome Run. This is a miniseries of 5 episodes that I recorded this summer when I stayed at the Danish Institute in Rome.

This first episode covers the topic of the Roman baths and bathing culture within the empire. To enlighten me, I teamed up with Jens Koehler, classical archaeologist and adjunct assistant professor at John Cabot University. Jens is also part of the faculty at the American University in Rome.

If you're curious about the Roman Baths after listening to this episode, here are some useful links:
