I am starting a new diary about a new life in the third year of the 221st Olympiad.
The day after tomorrow, we sail for Egypt. On a galley! I have never been beyond Lesbos, our Greek island. Here in Mytilene, we live in a big, beautiful house. But in Egypt, our house will be even bigger. Everything will be different. I can't wait for the adventures to begin…
Do you want to find yourself in ancient Rome, the capital of the great Roman Empire?
To head to a performance at the Theatre of Pompey?
To see the triumph of Emperor Trajan?
To watch gladiator fights?
To bathe in the Baths of Nero?
To visit the Senate?
Iliona will tell you everything that a resident of the Eternal City needs to know!
The world of Ancient Rome has been brought to life by artist David Parkins. His detailed illustrations will show the lives of the Romans - from slave to emperor - in every detail.
